Yeah I’m surprised by how good the photo looks despite having no flash. I tried asking the Sigma FP Facebook group for their AF setups and they told me that if want to use AF I should just buy an iPhone. Great reminder why Facebook groups are the absolute worst.


I also use the touch screen to move the focus point around on the screen when needed.

Latest update from Nokishita today indicates that Sigma fp L will be announced in Sigma Stage Online event that is scheduled for 3/23 (9pm JST):

It seems that SIGMA fp L will be announced at "SIGMA STAGE Online" scheduled around 21:00 on March 23rd. In addition to the previous accessory, the AC adapter "UAC-21" and the USB cable (Type-C on both ends) "SUC-41" should also be announced. Is the suggested retail price of EVF-11 75,000 yen + tax?

The EVF-11 accessory seems to be pretty expensive based on this new rumor.

I really like the FP so am following this keenly. That is one expensive EVF though..but curious to see how it will be implemented.

Definitely seems expensive, so I hope it's spec'd to mind-blowing levels. I'm more than likely going to pick one up, maybe off Greentoe to ease the sting a little. I really miss having an evf.

I guess we'll know the deal on the 23rd!

Sigma hasn't announced the Sigma Stage Online event for 23rd yet and according to latest from Nokishita the pre-announcement about event was scheduled for 3/19 but hasn't actually happened yet so there might be some change of schedule.
https://twitter.com/nokishita_c/status/1373909558104518656

It's still a bit unclear if the EVF is only for the new Sigma fp L or whether it is also for the original fp. I hope it could work equally on both but need to wait and see. I could be tempted to get the new EVF somewhere along the way if I keep my fp as well, but I'm not sure yet. Not sure if I want to keep buying lenses in L-mount in addition to E-mount and how the weight of fp + EVF would compare to A7C.

Super curious about the L, and what that sensor means for video.

The initial EVF specs (3.68M dots) look a little disappointing for the price. Was hoping for at least the EVF from the A7RIV, A7SIIIs EVF would have been amazing.

Later Nokishita tweet mentioned that the EVF will be 66000 yen in some Japanese shops including tax, which usually means that it will be about 10% cheaper at Map Camera. So a bit lower than the initially rumored official price.

https://twitter.com/nokishita_c/status/1374644046342230019

I'm not considering the new fp L now but might buy the EVF for my original Sigma fp at some point if it works well with the original fp.

Also not too interested in the Fp L. Fairly happy with 24 megapixels and after firmware 2.0 the eye AF is acceptable with the 85 1.4 so I don't really need the phase detect for my portraiture.

Alright my fpL arrived yesterday and my Sigma I Series 35/2 arrives tomorrow, so I will report back on it.
Consolidating down from an FP & SL2.. will see how it goes!
Will get EVF later when generally available.

Have some esoteric M lenses around the house at the moment I've toyed around with on fpL but not sure if anything worth posting yet!
