FAKE or REAL? Teaser for the world’s first Sigma FP camera with Full Frame Foveon sensor!

This teaser image for a Sigma FP camera presentation is shared on Weibo. The image shows the X3 logo, which stands for the famous Foveon technology! I honestly don’t know if the image is FAKE or REAL. The skeptic in me knows that Sigma CEO Yamaki said the development would take a long time. So I would be very surprised to see a camera like this at the CP+ show. At best we can hope it’s real, but what we’re getting is just a prototype. Something that won’t be on the market for another 1-2 years. What do you think?

If the teaser is legit than we can definitely assume a couple of things:

• This is a new FP camera with X3 Foveon sensor (as we can see the logo)
• It’s L-mount
• It’s Full Frame

Some history: EXACTLY 9 years ago Sigma announced their last Foveon camera you can still find here: https://amzn.to/3QwfXgU.

Will Sigma make NEW history next week? I am praying to the old and new gods that this teaser is REAL!
