Your first review video of the Sigma FP is what convinced me. I ended up getting the Sigma FPL. 😁 Its a damn Dragon!

I'm strictly a stills shooter; when I shot with an fp L I honestly shot in medium resolution a lot of the time giving a ~26mp image. The way I see it is if I want the extra pixel density for a shot for cropping or super fine detail (that no one is honestly going to notice without a loupe but that's aside the point) I can go to high-res mode at 60mp. I also shot a ton of stills in 21:9 aspect ratio where I will usually use high-res mode for the ~39mp shots.

does the fp l have an app? Have you ever tried tethered shooting? thanks

Very in depth comparison and review of both. Definitely food for thought so thanks for your time.

Thank you for not inflicting buyers remorse. Amazing content as always.

Very cool video- thank you for your effort in keeping FP users informed- thumbs up!

Great video bro, very insightful. I'm still struggling wether to purchase but I think I will buy one soon.

I was watching your diffusion video and this video showed up, thought it was just a suggested then I saw 3 Hours ago...I mean what is this energy? Abracadabra!!! cool seeing You again man!

Thanks very much for this. Incredibly useful as I ponder the purchase of my 5th fp. Cheers.

Thanks for this informative clip. I was undecided before. I went ahead and bought the fp after watching this clip.

Thanks for the in depth review brother always good to see your vids. Seems like FP-L is really not worth it to upgrade. I am really waiting to see what sigma is going to release next, very curious. For sure they can compete with the Big brands if they focused on what a camera actually needs. That 12-Bit RAW Though.....Geeze...

Another informative and awesome video!

I use an FP-L for forensic photography & always on a tripod. I love it but would love if more if it had a tilting LCD.

Good comprehensive video. I hope Sigma continues developing the fp line of cameras - particularly the Foveon-sensored version they were working on a while back. Their previous Foveon-sensored cameras had such a distinctive image, almost film like.

Ready with popcorns 😁.

Great video, very helpful, thanks! I see you have the carbon fiber skin on your fp. How do you like it, have you had any problems with it peeling at all and do you think it would come off easily if you decided to remove it?

@21:30 Unless you were shooting at a lesser resolution on the L to match the fp that 'banding' can simply be explained by the higher resolution of the L, where the L would have (give or take) twice the pixels to render that curved red corner.

I would not bother with rolling shutter matters and such. It is just the charisma of the camera.

Looking to pickup the FP some video and photo. Any favorite smaller primes ? Does manual focus well with a voightlanger for example. Manual lens might make it almost pocketable

I would like to see a video comparing the fp to the komdos colors

I purchased before I watched this video and boy am I glad I did

Question. I know on the fpl the rolling shutter is lowest at 1.24 crop (17.5ms according to cined) and really poor at 1.53 crop On the fp does rs stay the same from 1 x to 1.53 apsc crop? Also there are tests reporting up to 25k usable low light on fp. Do you know how the fpl holds up in lowlight (I realize it’s inferior but wondering if it’s close or a blow out)? Asking these questions because I’m using this camera as a aerial, ground and underwater video for documentary work and wondering if there are scenarios where one camera outperforms the other?

after watching comparison part with komodo, damn I wish I had extra 6k for komodo... the color is very vibrant and that dynamic range..

Maybe lots of people aren’t aware but that’s the trade off for high megapixels is more noise at higher ISO.

thanks for the review bud. Have you ever compared the EVF to the LVF (the FP loupe for the LCD)? I’m finding LVFs on the used market for around 150$ - and EVFs are mighty expensive! Thanks!

I ended up upgrading from the fp to fpl because I do a lot of macro and landscape - the extra megapixels have been immediately useful for cropped prints. I find myself getting a lot of shots I'd struggle with before, because now I don't always have to be close enough to get that full 1:1 or 2:1 with my subject filling the frame to get a workable print. And it lets me go further with less glass when I'm hiking. Definitely not for everyone though! The low light performance is noticable, the autofocus is good enough for stills but still not great, battery life is even worse, etc. Webcam and power via the USB-c without a dummy battery is a nice little bonus though for zoom calls. I think the fpl really only makes sense for stills photography but for me it's absolutely perfect and leans even harder than the fp in being the absolutely ideal travel camera. Now I just need a little pancake lens with enough sharpness to actually take advantage of the fpl 😆. The 7artisans 35 f/5.7 was a banger for point & shoot days with the fp but was already a little bit soft...

The FPL is definitly the way to go with you really want to do photography on a sigma FP line. Peronally I think they should have staying as a cinema camera. The FP (which is built for cine) has an amazing look for video and the CinemaDNG 12-bit RAW has that tangible feel to it, much like good film.

@@muziektelevisie I believe that's the additional filtering you're seeing.

I didn't find any resolution retaining under the DC crop mode in the official manual for the fp, is it real that you don't lose any resolution on fp under crop mode? How is it possible? And why the newer one doesn't have this feature? I'm skeptical about that.

I think you might have a misunderstanding of the crop zoom function. It doesn't lower the resolution it crops in further on the sensor while retaining the same resolution. It depends on what you are set at. In UHD you can go from 1.0x-2.5x (2.5x being pixel to pixel). In 1080p you can crop from 1.0x-5.0x (again, 5.0x is pixel to pixel). This is the same as DC crop but with many additional crops. It I'd actually a great tool to use. Thanks for the video.

I love my fp, both for stills and cinema. You mentioned the dial wheel on the back, and a free Sigma replacement service. The softness of that dial wheel has been a PIA to me, so that was exciting news. However, after calling Sigma in New York, it's a $250 service with about a ten-day timeframe. So, NOT free.

Good comparison! Any new FP in the works? I'm waiting for a new release to buy one... :)

well, it's obvious that the higher megapixel sensor is going to crop in for higher frame rates. it's not easy to "scan" across so many megapixels so many times in one second, so cropping is used to reduce the number of megapixels. that's why cameras that are more geared towards video almost invariably have fewer megapixels than those that are geared towards stills.

Hey does both camera have 4:3 mode video for anamorphic

The Fp-L seems worse in many of these tests. The low light test may be its best showing because I feel the gradation of color seems smoother, even though the image is darker. It's a tough call.

You are an awesome human

I think the difference in colour seen on the tree trunks is probably caused by the slightly larger dynamic range. To my eye, the trunk on the right is just a bit lighter, the one on the left is slightly darker

Looks like fp model has better rolling shutter than Sony A7IV. Way better.

My choices are the BMPCC4K, BMPCC6K Pro, Used BM URSA 4.6K G2, Panasonic Lumix GH6 and finally the SIGMA FP. I have plenty of still image cameras so this purchase is mostly for Cinematic Projects .

They’re all perfectly good cameras i suppose. Im not really in the market of selling anyone any particular camera, i just think the fp is a great option for what it offers and for the price. Its a great minimalist camera that doesnt take much to get some nice footage out of. But at the end of the day, as they say, the best camera is the one you have on you. So in other words, the camera doesnt make the man, the man makes the camera. If you get what i mean!

I primarily shoot photos, so I'm happy. Otherwise yeah, at retail price, Sigma FP all day.

The way you described the crop modes was very biased. I love your channel, but it makes no sense to say the APSC crop doesnt degrade picture quality (for still especially). It obviously does just the same as the gradient crops on the FP L. All modes are digital cropping with pictures. And its odd to compare the 5x crop being 1080p on the L, when it can do the exact same 4k resolution while cropped in more than the FP.

when it comes to low light capability - you can finish there

The fp is a great stills camera.

No, Sigma never claimed that the fpL has more dynamic range than fp. I have both cameras and I use the fpL for landscape or photos where I use a tripod for the most. You can also use it handheld, but you need to up the speed due to larger Mpx and slower readout. As to colour difference, do remember these are two different sensors as well. I use fp for film and photos.

I don't get how they can create a brilliant camera that will so obviously appeal to countless low budget film makers and NOT have it deliver serious slow motion. $500 more would not stop many from getting it, and with, say, 60 fps in RAW Cinema DNG and 4K and full frame, this camera would beat out Blackmagic's whole fleet of cameras.

I just bought one Fp😂

fp-L. 1000 dollars more expensive gets you a higher resolution picture, and worst low light performance, worst rolling shutter, worst HFR because of the crop, worst AF (it hunts more, although I wouldn’t use either camera in AF for video). I do wonder what Sigma was thinking when they’ve released the fp-L.

So basically the FP-L is a JOKE.. and cost more..thanks !
