Sigma corporation is pleased to announce the launch of Sigma fp, the world’s smallest and lightest full-frame mirrorless digital camera (as of July 2019). The Sigma fp incorporates a 35mm full-frame Bayer sensor with 24.6 effective megapixels in a compact body, and boasts great versatility and scalability that allows mixing-and-matching of a variety of interchangeable lenses and accessories.

It is a camera that is casual enough to take anywhere, anytime, and high-spec enough for serious still and cine shooting in the highest image quality, all in a robust and classy body.
Regardless of the differences in shooting scenes and styles or genre boundaries between stills and videos, this new camera is set to expand the freedom and possibilities in image shooting and art creation further than ever before. A “pocketable full-frame” camera : Sigma fp, is now available.

Key features
- Overall dimensions of 112.6×69.9×45.3mm and body weight of 370g, without battery and card, back-illuminated 35mm full-frame Bayer sensor with 24.6 effective megapixels, electronic shutter
- The Auto HDR function takes advantage of an electronic shutter to take multiple pictures of different exposures (3 frames for still photography and 2 frames for video) at once, which can then be merged into a single picture or video with a great dynamic range
- L-Mount (registered Trademark of Leica Camera AG)

For raw video data, the Sigma fp supports 12-bit CinemaDNG external recording. With 4K UHD/24fps recording, it produces video data that can be used even in filmmaking. It also supports ALL-I recording which is optimal for editing H.264 compressed videos.
For video output, it uses USB3.1(GEN1).
