North Florida Swamp | DP2Q + 1/200 @ f/5.6, ISO 100
Good to see the Quattro making another appearance. I have that itch to acquire another camera. I enjoy the proccess and time involved getting to know how to shoot a new camera, handle the files and find what ones capabilities are with it. The Dp0 Q is going to be very interesting to see when it is available.

Hi Julian,
I rented the DP2Q and decided I would stay with the DP2M. I may however buy the DP0Q after I see others report back with images and commentary. The Quattro IMO is technically easier to shoot as far as time and placement of buttons, but I was not enjoying the body style much. I was using it with the LVF-01 LCD Viewfinder which made the camera a bit larger than using my Hoodman Loupe with the DPMs, but the view was crisp and it is nice how the LVF-01 fastens to the body, I do like the DP2Q files, but not enough to make a switch.

Interesting observation Darr. I was going to mention the size/shape. I enjoy seeing initiative within design, but what trouble me in acquiring the Quattro, is, I will be leaving the idea of having as small a camera as possible with the attributes of a larger sensor. Three Quattro's it appears will not sit in the bag I sit three Merrill's in together. Yet again lets wait and see how the lens on the DP0Q behaves. If it is well I can forgive the size inconvenience for a good 21mm focal .
Excellent Darr. I spent quite a while with the EM-5 shooting beach pebbles and stones. Not persuade with the Sigma's, must give it a try again sometime soon.
