too sad nobody knows this camera because sigma is such a niche player. anyways I have the predecessor, the sigma dp2, and planning to buy this great beast.
be warned though: the sigma dp2 merrill is not for somebody who just wants to "point and shoot", it is for people who are genuinly interested
The DP2m is an interesting camera (as is its sibling the DP1m) with the Foveon sensor giving some fantastic results. Having said that, comparing it with a full frame DSLR is really apples and oranges. Better comparisons would be the Fuji X100, Sony RX1, or even some Leicas.

Cheers,
