Hi Philippe, in case you're unaware, dpReview appears to have the Sigma SD1 'in hand' and have a review of the camera 'in process'. A combination preview / start of a review is already up on their site. From the looks of the introductory page of the preview, it certainly appears that, like a lot of folks, they are having quite a bit of trouble coming to a state of detente regarding the pricing model being used for the SD1. Note: there are NOT any sample images from the camera posted at dpReview as of Yet, but they generally have a set of Preview Samples at some point, then Review Samples that coincide with the finishing of the review - whenever that might occur. While I am not certain dpReview is entirely everyone's cup of tea as an equipment review site, I do find the depth and range of specifications, samples, and test images, for a plethora of cameras which have mostly been reviewed under the same methodology for many years, to be a handy way to get a handle on what different cameras have on offer. At least to the extent possible without the individual cameras being in my hands, I find the site pretty informative. Peace.
