Award Overview

Evaluation comments by the Jury:
If the concept of a "digital camera" did not exist today, and only the technology of "taking photographs" were known, the tool created for that purpose might have taken the form of the Sigma BF.
It possesses a freshness reminiscent of the impact felt upon first encountering the iPod or iPhone, and embodies a beauty that arises from pure dedication to its purpose.
The essence of the Sigma brand is clearly embodied here: an idea that places the lens at its core, refining the camera body to the utmost degree and elevating its purity even further. It is a product that rekindles the long-forgotten excitement of encountering truly inspiring product design.
