So, it seems that camera comparisons are never really apples and apples, but instead apples and oranges or pineapples. Why compare a camera that is circa ~2007 (the Sigma SD 14) with a much newer camera such as the K5 from 2013?

Is there such a thing as an infrared bomb? I’m hard pressed to explain the picture in figure 1, one of the first infrared photos I’ve taken with the SD14. I had just taken the shot in figure 2 (a photo of me looking like an infrared zombie) – and had gotten up to check the camera. Without touching the tripod, I snapped off another shot of the dry erase board that hangs on the wall behind the chair I had just vacated. The photo of figure 1 emerged as a result.

I had been wanting to try the famous Sigma Foveon sensor for a long time, but wanted to put a toe in the pond before becoming a Foveon aficionado extreme (When I become an aficionado, it’s always extreme).
