Will We See a Full Frame Foveon Sensor From Sigma Soon?
Sigma's Foveon sensors have long had a small but loyal following who love their sharp images and vibrant, accurate colors. Since the advent of the L mount alliance, there has long been the hope that the Foveon sensor might find its way into a full frame camera. Sigma's CEO recently confirmed that those hopes might soon come true. In a recent interview, Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki discussed the company's progress on developing a full frame Foveon sensor, noting that it has been difficult to enlarge the sensor to full frame size.
