The R-D1x was brought out 6 years earlier than the DP2 Quattro which is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras feature different body design with the Epson R-D1x being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Sigma DP2 Quattro being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before going into a comprehensive comparison, here is a concise overview of how the R-D1x matches up vs the DP2 Quattro with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Epson R-D1x and Sigma DP2 Quattro. The entire galleries are viewable at Epson R-D1x Gallery and Sigma DP2 Quattro Gallery.

If you're planning to travel with your camera, you should take into account its weight and dimensions.

Typically, it's hard to picture the difference between sensor dimensions merely by checking a spec sheet. The image below will help give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the R-D1x and DP2 Quattro.

As you can see, the two cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should count on the Sigma DP2 Quattro to resolve extra detail having its extra 14 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged R-D1x is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
