# Sigma FP2

11 Hacker News commenters recommended Sigma FP2 and 7 criticized it, November 2025 to November 2026. It was recommended in 2 of 13 months.

**Verdict:** Recommended for its small size with full-frame image quality and strong colour and 6K 60p video; the lack of in-body image stabilization is the most common caveat.

## Why people recommend it

- Small size with full-frame image quality (2 comments): "The Fp L was great for landscapes because it was so ridiculously tiny for a 61MP camera that you could just chuck it in a waist bag instead of a backpack." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50252974)) "when it comes to the pareto frontier of small size versus full frame image quality, this is it" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50251651))

## What people warn about

- No in-body image stabilization (5 comments): "Lack of in body image stabilization is difficult, though." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50251134)) "No IBIS is rough, because its definitely a useful thing" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50255027)) "the lack of IBIS on the FP2 a bit more painful" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50251900))
