My favorite lens for the Sigma fp (even though it is for crop mode) - the Canon EF S 15-85 IS. Best stabilization of any lens I have used and super sharp. Good range as a general purpose lens.

@jleo Thanks. Sigma MC-21: L to EF. The Sigma fp has a crop mode, so you can use EF and EF S lenses, even EF lenses in crop mode.

@jleo I tried the Panasonic S 24-105. It is a great lens - basically parfocal with little focus breathing, constant-aperture, and auto focus is fine (given the limits of the camera). And as a full-frame lens, you have the option to go into crop mode and extend the reach (to 160mm) with no loss of resolution in 4K. However, the stabilization is just not very good, and that to me is key to handheld, agile shooting. The Canon EF S 15-85 has the best stabilization of any extended zoom I have tried.

New firmware v2.02

• Corrected the bug related to Compressed RAW over HDMI recording with Atomos NINJA V monitor-recorder (ISO metadata reported in Final Cut Pro X may occasionally be incorrect if using 1/3 EV ISO adjustments on the camera)
• Corrected the bug related to the electronic image stabilization system in CINE mode (Video footage appears distorted in the following conditions - Stopping the video recording using the shutter button when the electronic image stabilization system is turned “ON” and the shutter button function is set to “REC” in CINE mode.)

Just picked up a Sigma FP in Mumbai today, it's been available in India for ₹96,000 ($1299) for over a month and a half now.

The Camera comes updated with Firmware 2.02

Hi everyone! Planing to buy sigma fp , but I am not sure about some issues. Did they solve the problems with strange heavy aliasing/moire artifacts?

Firmware 2.03

1. Corrected issue where the REC trigger doesn’t work when a gimbal is connected to camera via USB and an external monitor / recorder is connected via HDMI.
2. Corrected issue where the panning detection functionality doesn’t work when the image stabilization switch of the Panasonic LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. lens is set to MODE2.
3. Corrected issue where the camera freezes when selecting “Further Options” within “Mode Settings” when the language is set to “Russian”.
