Battery, viewfinder and accessories
Sigma says battery life is about 30% longer than the original fp: about 370 stills or 130 minutes of video.
The optional EVF-21 has a 0.5-inch OLED of about 5.76 million dots, tilts up to 90 degrees and connects through a single USB-C port. The optional dedicated charger takes about 175 minutes through a USB PD adapter.
For video, a Director's Viewfinder mode simulates cinema-camera frame lines and desqueeze. 32-bit float audio needs the optional hot shoe unit plus two specific Panasonic audio accessories, all sold separately.
Why it matters
Sigma pairs a small body with 6K OpenGate and ProRes RAW, and the physical stills/cine switch suits shooters who move between both (our read). The trade-offs are what comes extra: the viewfinder, hot shoe unit and audio adapters are separate purchases, and 32-bit float audio needs third-party parts.
