Sigma BF is there and could fly well show in Leice with a minimalist look.
Here is a camera that goes to the point: no stir, no pimples everywhere, just enough to capture the perfect moment.
This is what Sigma offers with its brand new Sigma bfbox A complete 24.6 megapixel format which comes with elegant design and modern features.
This hybrid, announced today, February 24, 2025, can shade the giants like Leica. So what does this Sigma BF do so special?
A structural decrease in mass
Let’s start from the outside, because here is Sigma BF hard. Its case is made in one block of aluminum, carved for seven hours to get an ultra -firm and elegant shell.
This is the first in the world of photography and gives a device that weighs 446 grams (included in the battery) and is barely 13 cm long. Light, compact, easy to hold in your pocket or in a small bag. This is undoubtedly where it can also come and compete with the iPhone.
On the command side, Sigma has a minimalism: rear wheel, three haptic buttons (which slightly vibrate when you press it a little like a smartphone) and the trigger at the top. No more dozens of pimples that you never know what they are used for! The main screen with its 2.1 million dots only shows a live image, while a small monochrome screen above the wheels shows you a basic settings such as shutter speed or opening. Simple, clear, effective: We love (on paper).
A show that throws away without complicating life
Under his elegant look Sigma BF hides a good potential performance. Its full -fledged sensor of 24.6 megapixels (which may undoubtedly be its weak point in 2025) is associated with a hybrid autofocus system.
In principle, it combines two technologies: contrast detection (for accuracy) and phase detection (for speed). Result? It is suitable for subjects -Humany or animals -a dokonce in very low lighting conditions up to -5 ev.
Do you like to hack settings? No concern, everything is there: ISO from 6 to 102 400 (play with brightness), complete manual modes and even 13 color filters that give you an artistic touch. Photos are in RAW (raw format for retouching) or JPEG, with a definition of 6016 x 4012 pixels and the device can pull up to 8 images per second.
For videoographers, Sigma BF is also a pleasant surprise. IT movies in 6K (Ultra High Definition) up to 30 frames per second or in 2K at 120 images per second to slow down the fluid. Everything is stored directly on its 230 GB internal memory – yes, no SD card, everything is integrated. With possibilities such as L-Log (to increase colors in postproduction) and tools such as a histogram or a pattern of Zebra (to prevent excessive exposed areas), they are also focused on assembly professionals.
For whom is this Sigma BF?
Sigma BF will arrive in April 2025, black or money, for $ 1999 (certainly at least 2,000 euros). Is compatible with the objectives of the lectureAnd Sigma will take advantage of the opportunity to re -start nine goals of their series I, from 17 mm to 90 mm, with adjusting the appropriate case.
It is a device designed for those who want to focus on the essentials: frame, shoot, create. No unnecessary gadgets, just a machine that works in style.
If you like a device with a lot of buttons to edit everything, it’s not the one it does for you. But for fans of minimalism, this BF is interesting.
