Wow, it has "open" in the name. That's great!

Quite impressive, and I would not say "no" to such a camera. But it's
not really superior.
They are slow (wow, the fastest has up to 70pictuers per MINUTE).
Sensor-Size "full frame CCD", factor 1.1. What is it now? 90% is nor
100%. Not that I would care, but it's this marketing-gibberish that I
don't like!
1hr exposure without noise. that's a plain lie! You can't digitize
anything without getting some noise.
Sorry, they may have a great product, but what they claim is ridiculous.
Up to ISO800. Nice, but not enough for general purpose. 1.5 images per
second: not really impressing.
This is a great camera, but comparing this with a Professional DSLR is
just comparing apples and eggs. This is a specialised tool which does
great in it's field, but would fail miserably in many situations.
For me, I'd prefer the Canon.
