Sigma BF as OG Pocket Replacement.

That's it really.

For those of us in the hardcore group on here who always wish for an updated OG Pocket, well maybe this could be it. There are caveats obviously, Sigma's interpretation of its promises are often different to our expectations of those promises, the Sigma FP being a classic example. However, I thought this was interesting and worth a look.

Steve, if their CMOS sensor is 6.4K, how do they get to record 8K 30 fps video?

Pure ancient magic Rick! The Specs on Sigma's site say 6K not 8K!

Thanks, I was looking at a 3rd party promotion that got a little carried away!
