Its my first look at it and i guess i am a average detectorist
but i dont have four grand to drop right now.
Maybe after you try one first Brad .

6 to 8 hour battery life, 5.5 pounds and 2 year warrenty .
This thing better be able to read the date of a dime at 15 inches.

Not in my budget either although it is cheaper than the GPX 4800/5000 I've been lusting over. Been lotsa requests around a detector having all those features over the recent years. Should be interesting to see how many were THAT serious about it.

Sucker is way heavy!!!the 3-deminsional screen worked pretty well..did not seem extremely deep....way to much money......

Its a step in the right direction though...

Does it look heavy!!

IF I were rich, I'd try it, it does look very interesting. Give it five years, and the technology will be cheap enough that it'll be affordable (E-trac/V3i prices) and lighter.....could easily be an interesting way for detecting to go.

As much as we love our American MD companies, I think the Europeans are poised to come up with the "next big thing" in detecting, but will it be affordable to the "average" detectorists?

PS - Did you hear the sound that thing made when it detected that deep coin at the beach? It sounded like a video game

Sounds like a Star Wars Battle.
I wonder if courses can be taken with that machine...Yikes !
Pretty neat though.
I'd like to see how it seperates, didn't see anything on it.
I think there is a lot there for the price.

Has this already been discussed? ...

For some reason I want to say yes but I can't seem to find the post. I know I have saw the video and remember Tom remarking about the operator not burying the coin in the water.

If he used items we would reconize and speak in inches instead of cm's, it would be quick to see there is nothing very great about the machine. Aluminum cans for larger plates of aluminum, fruit jar lids... I think my 3D would match his detector with these things. If you want to get an ideal of his depth, 2.5cm (25mm) = 1 inch. 10cm (100mm) = 4 inches. ...give or take a sixteenth or so. You should be able to figure out the rest from that.

Hate the starwars sound!

Yes..... this was discussed in a previous thread.
