Hey Larry, I stop there a lot of times too as the views from there can be super cool, especially if you get clouds. Good eye for those aspen.

Thanks Peter for your comments are appreciated. I live in Denver because it is close to so many beautiful landscapes photo ops. I think the dp0 Quattro is the the best Foveon bsed Sigma camera. ;)

I also feel that the DP0 Quattro is the best! I'm considering buying a DP0.. I found out that in SPP you can generate an "S-HI" size (approximately 25.6 x 17.1), which could be printed up to 24 x 36.. What do you think?

Hi Peter I have used the 'S-HI size on occasion and it works fine. Recently I have been using the Sigma add-in to Photoshop to bring the Raw files directly into PS. The file are processed as PSD files and seems to give me better control of the finsl output. I also find the export function in PS allows me to increase or decrease the file size to suit how I want to use the output.

A number of years ago, Rick Decker had some 30 X 45 inch prints made from native SD1 Merrill files (not Super Hi Rez) and circulated the prints around the globe to Sigma user to view and comment. Kendall and I reviewed the images and found them to be beautiful. I think the native Quattro files should print 24-36 inches with no problems.

PS I have printed some of my wife's SD15 image up to 13x19 inches with no problems!

Thanks for the good info, Larry! Yes, SD15 is great, but not enough Mpix.. DP Quattro has the colors tuned to my taste and S-HI is a good format for printing. It is fast, with good results (Photoshop/Topaz).

You are welcome Peter, glad to help.
I rarely print larger than 16x20 so any Sigma camera past SD14 works well in those confines :)
