So will Nikon lenses work on that camera? I know Sigma lenses will work on Nikon camera's with the right mount. Curious if they will work or not.
Sigma has their own lens mount: SA mount

Can be fitted to view cameras too.
PS if you are wondering which Leica HP was referring to, it is this one:

The price is for the body ONLY. The lenses it takes are almost as expensive (click on Accessories).
PPS chas, I bet that 50mm doesn't seem expensive at all, now.

Looking in the Sigma website store they are priced with lens kits. It looks like the body alone is going to be over $6K. I think that's still way too high. They need to get it under $3K to have a chance, or it's going to need to show up with a fancier feature list than what I've seen so far. Splash proof? I was ticked when Canon sold me a $2500 camera that wasn't weatherproof!
It sounds like a $1500 camera with a $4000 sensor. Foveon is neat, but if it was that much better there would be more people using it. I've looked at Foveon camera prints in the past. I'm not seeing the "film-like" qualities. I don't doubt that they're there, but it's subtle. Maybe something that becomes more obvious when using the camera over a period of time. I think it's too subtle for $4000. If they had a rep for high end gear they might get away with a little more. I think my Sigma gear (lenses) are wonderful, but their rep is for affordable gear.You know what camera Sigma kills with? An 8mp, APS-C, bayer array knock off of a Rebel that does video, and sells $150 to $200 less than a Rebel. Leica needs to concentrate on building a digital M that lives up to their rep before they go jousting with Hasselblad.
