Sigma announces the BF camera carved from a single block of aluminium!

I think you should take a close look at the new Sigma BF camera (here at BHphoto). The main reason is that it has a radically minimalist design, which I personally really like! Here is some important information:

  • carved from a single block of aluminum
  • minimalist controls
  • 230 GB of internal memory (there is no SD card slot)
  • No EVF, no SD slot, no HDmi, no IBIS and NO to a lot of things you usually have on a camera!
  • Sigma BF Stands for ‘Beautiful Foolishness’

From a technical perspective, this really is a ‘boring’ camera, but the novelty here is the radical new design and user interface.

Here you can see images of the Aluminum block used to carve out the new BF camera:

The I lens series has been redesigned to match the new BF camera style:
