They are offering a multi-spectral camera for about $6500/- a piece and I wonder if anyone has used it and what your thoughts are

I talked to them and held the product at a conference this spring. It's impressively stout and rugged. Love to put one through it's paces, but that'll be a while
Very nice, thanks. Well thought out unit made for UAV application.
I found the email. I don't want to offer up his credentials without permission, but I'll email a link to this thread and see if he would like to offer first-hand experience.
EDIT: sounds like he's going to join the discussion here.
See John Sulik's response in the "Right Tool for the Job" thread.
I Have talked with a dealer here in argentina and it actually look very good. pictures come down already georeferenced and in a nice format already multiband. It is according to the dealer, the iPhone of multispectral cameras. You program min altitude to take pictures, overlap with computer and just press on/off at the field.
I tend to think that with 1 filter for each band you should get better quality also.

No personal experience, but i was referred to a man working for the USDA and publishing studies on remote sensing, and he recommended them.
I think the quote was "These examples are from the Rededge, which we have had very good results with. Other options, such as the tetracam, are an absolute nightmare to use".
it is actually 6500 euros I think.
Don't know if they have dropped the pricing... this is the first time I have seen it
