Finally, 14-bit files and raw is 5,424×3,616 but the camera brings back the Super Large JPG concept: 7,680×5,120. Looks like the new sensor has a bit more resolution (which was already awesome on the Merrill series) and better high ISO (the Achille's heel of Foveon). Unusual looks for the DP2Q, the first that will be released. Still fixed lenses - no ILC mirrorless, unfortunately

"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

More info on sensor:

Sigma wrote:
The new 1:1:4 structure (bottom 1: middle 1: top 4) offers higher resolution
that is equivalent to 39 megapixels for conventional color filter array sensors.
In addition to this ultra-high resolution, the sensor offers enhanced noise characteristics
and faster processing and writing to memory of high-volume image data.

We'll see if they're exaggerating the effective resolution.
