lens also offers enhanced macro functionality.Sigmas DP3 Merrill completes their series of compact cameras by covering the mid-
telephoto and macro ranges of photography. The DP1 Merrill is designed for wide angle images, the DP2 Merrill covers the standard range, while the DP3 Merrill rounds out the series with a camera for all shooting situations.The 23.5 × 15.7
mm full-colour Foveon X3 direct image sensor featured in the DP3 Merrill incorporates 46 effective megapixels (4,
800 × 3,200 × 3 layers) and 44 recording megapixels (4,704 × 3,136 × 3 layers). The Foveon X3 direct image sensor captures all primary RGB colors at each and every pixel location with 3 layers, ensuring the capture of full and complete colour.
