Sigma SD10 Street Photography Detailed Analysis

Optical Built-in Viewfinder

Using a viewfinder during a street photography shoot allows the photographer to stabilize the camera and reduce the camera shake since it is closer to the body. Besides, it comes handy where LCD screens are very hard to read under bright sunlight.

Large APS-C (20.7 x 13.8 mm) sensor

Large sensor in Sigma SD10 ensures a good low light image quality compared to smaller sensor, and it also provide shallow depth of field and a nice blurry background when needed.

No Live-view

Live view lets you take photos without using the viewfinder which makes you less obstrusive and this works very well during street photography where you don't want to get people's attention.

No Image Stabilization

An articulated screen gives you the flexibility to shoot in non traditional positions such as waist level, which helps you to be more creative and unobtrusive in the streets.

Large Body

Due to the lack of sensor based Image stabilization, Sigma SD10 users have to rely on lenses with optical IS in order to maximize the sharpness of their handheld street photography photos. Currently there are native Sigma SA Bayonet mount lenses with Image Stabilization for Sigma SD10.
