Today is Dirty Harry's 71st. He'd still kick your ass.

The "common people" using Canon's 1 series digital bodies? Or Nikon's D3X/D3S? Not to mention the comparative price of Canon and Nikon glass to Sigma's self-described "low cost" line of lenses. Youse trollin' bro.

Foveon sensors are a really neat idea that will never see a proper implementation in to a real world product as long as Sigma owns the patent to the technology and doesn't license it. Mike Johnson, who runs the excellent photography blog The Online Photographer, had a great article last year about foveon technology. He compared the Foevon sensor to Lincoln Walsh's speaker drivers, which are the only used in Ohm brand speakers. The article is a good read for photo nerds, audio snobs or those of us who happen to be both.
