Announced in September 2008 at photokina in Cologne, Germany, is the Sigma SD15 is a direct successor of the now rather long-in-the-tooth SD14 model, which was announced in September 2006 with delivery in March 2007. The Sigma SD15 records almost the same APS-C-(0.98 / 24.9 mm diagonal), Foveon X3 image of the SD14.
