Before venturing into town this morning I checked my Sigma DP1, enough power in the battery, was the memory card in the camera ! When I switched it on everything worked except I couldn’t see anything through the lens, it was as if the lens cap was on. Information was on the screen, I could view photo’s on the memory card, but can’t capture an image. It’s had a lot of use and I bought it secondhand, so I’m not too upset. I’ll email Sigma UK tomorrow to see if it can be serviced.

What’s with all the guitars?

I don’t know, possibly for a future event, not sure they will survive very long in the weather we are having at the moment. 🙂

Thank you Alexandra. Hopefully Sigma might be able to fix it, at least I have loads of film cameras to use and 2 reasonable digital ones. 🙂

I spotted these guitars on my walk along here today. It appears to be a work of art called “Wings”. I snapped a photo of the flyer describing how it came about (https://flic.kr/p/DPPM92) . I couldn’t get a great shot of the guitars myself as the place was closed. Sounds like another interesting place I need to explore.
I do hope there’s something which can be done for your DP1.

They are a friendly bunch in the pop up cafe, and the food is good. I rested the sigma on top of the gates to get the shot, the camera (me) didn’t quite get the focus where I had intended.

Just got an e-mail from Sigma, needs to go back to Japan for repair, £149.00p (168.00 euro) will have to think about. 😐

Nicely captured and shared. Sometimes the places may be selling to help support those they feed (?) That is a guess on my part.
