Yes, but if you had the millions of dollars to do the above right, would
you? I certainly would not because of the lack of customers. As I say, it
is all a matter of cost and profits. The best products in the world will
not be offered if some marketing wizard or accountant runs the numbers
and determines there is no profit. Granted, this system described above
would sell, but at a price that is too expensive for most on this list.
Look at RBT - great camera but not inexpensive and not a mass market
camera.
