I'm always a bit puzzled seeing you Michel declaring that the cmosis is a bad sensor just because it doesn' t suit the investment you were ready to make to handle it.
We are three of us using this sensor and being quite happy with it, that includes Thierry :)
Christian Viladrich got some stunning results with this sensor :

I'm about to sell my development camera (I have to change them once a year for accounting reasons) and actually I'm pretty sure I'll take another CMOSIS. Maybe a cooled one this time...
You can say you didn't like it, and it is true its a tough one and the learning curve is steep. But you can't say it's not good, especially seeing the huge success it is in science and industry. Every single camera supplier has the cmosis in its portfolio, it is not a coincidence...
