Anyone used one of these and/or know any specifics about them other that what is on the website? If so, is there a dealer in the US that you are aware of (yes I saw the dealer link on the site).

They are designed to cover a large CCD surface area on a digital SLR. I've never seen one with a 3" crayford before they normaly have a 2".

I guess if it's unique and there is no competition you can charge what you like. It's a bit like a Ferrari if cash is no object you just want the best at any cost.

At this price range I'd expect them to ship worldwide. You can even have a factory visit and a tour by all accounts.

Here's the dealers list. http://www.orionoptics.co.uk/dealerspage.html No USA on there but that means an opportunity for some enterprising person to become one i guess
