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 just got the dimensions yesterday. I was contracted by a client to make one.
Many thanks Matt ! It's really helpful.
My experience for determining reflectance require a black and a white panel with known reflectances, but MicaSense using only one white panel. I am wondering how can they achieve this purpose. Do you know the behind theory ?
How do you feel about their band-to-band registration quality? And, have you ever evaluated their NDVI value, which is affected by the accuracy of reflectance.
Awesome! will you be willing to share your images with me? I am working on creating a decision support system for farmers and want to see how my classification system would work on micasense images... my email ruchit@harvesting.co
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
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.
