    In search of Sigma cameras history, I encountered interesting fact (sourced from wiki.alquds.edu/?query=Kodak_DCS_Pro_SLR/c) (my emphasis):

    The Kodak Professional DCS Pro SLR/c is a 13.5 megapixel digital SLR camera produced by Eastman Kodak. It is full frame—it uses an image sensor that is the full size of a 35 mm (36x24 mm) frame. It is compatible with Canon EOS (EF mount) lenses. The camera was launched on March 18, 2004, and incorporates the internal systems of the previous Nikon-compatible SLR/n in a Sigma SA9 SLR body.

    Hello ArvoJ,

    Quite a few links in your online resource are not working/dead. An update is required for keeping the resource current.

    Regards,
    Sattva

    P.s: I have SPP Windows versions going back to 3.5 and almost all the promotional material / brochures (SD14 onwards) from official Sigma websites...which presently have vanished. If you would like to host them on your online resource, i can share them with you.

    Thanks for bringing such sad state of things into attention! I have not changed that page for years...
    Well, it takes few days to check links and provide archived content, if available. Lately there was article on dpreview about rotting bits (images etc) on internet - apparently many (if not most of) informative (but old) resources are tend to vanish :(

    Thank you for offer! But main problem is not finding broken links, searching for missing content on wayback machine takes more time.

    Anyway, I made my old'n'good Sigma page current. Like I said (and wrote on my page), this is sad business:

    Year 2023: This page can be provided as an example of information vanishing from internet. Most links are stale, much of valuable information (either images, pages or whole sites) is lost irrecoverably.

    Regards,
    Sattva

    P.s: I do not have a website presently. BUT, i am looking into getting one up and running 😃, once that materializes, i will also put up a Sigma page...and share the link with you.
