I'm considering who I might invest in later on this year - at the moment the prime candidate seems to be Canon, with the 40D or maybe the full-frame 5D if prices fall a bit. But I'm keeping an open mind - and as such want to know if Sigma have any plans for a new DSLR. The SD14 looks interesting, but with the 4.6 effective megapixels it's just too low, despite the triple layered '14 megapixel' sensor. It has a high-resolution mode, but that's interpolated, so I'd rather die.

So, anyone heard anything? Couldn't find anything myself, but thought I'd try here.

How about a small one almost like a dSLR? The new Sigma DP1 is coming with the biggest sensor ever on a compact:

I wonder if you have even seen pictures from a Sigma SD-14... incredible sharp detail, vivid colors.

If I could go back to when I made my DSLR purchase, I would get the SD14 instead. I slept on that one...
