The Sigma SD1 is the company's first entry into the high-end DSLR market, and features a magnesium alloy body design that includes rubber o-ring seals on buttons and connectors, for weather and dust resistance. Body dimensions are 5.7" x 4.4" x 3.1" (145.5 mm x 113.5 mm x 80.0 mm) and the body weighs 24.7 ounces or 700 grams without battery and card.
