I don't follow, Sigma hasn't stopped using Foveon sensors, they still use the Foveon Quattro stuff afaik. Now they use a 1:1:4 ratio for R/G/B layer resolution, where the blue layer also records luminance.

They decided they wanted to confuse people more when they tried to compare it to a Bayer sensor.

Actually I didn't realise they still made them... Nice to know. I remembered the Foveon sensors from when they were first introduced, but didn't see any reference to them still being made when I did a quick search to refresh my memory, so they may have a bit of a marketing issue ;)
