I don't see why this is all that surprising. Their medical imaging technology is practically second-to-none. It's not like digital imaging is an unknown field to them. If this was for a film camera, then I would definitely question it.
Personally, I would have been much more impressed if they were taking aspects of their digital imaging technology and putting it into this camera. But, the camera is going to be taken care of by veterans of the genre.
Besides, General Electric is having this designed by General Imaging. The similarity in names is a bit coincidental. It is possible that GI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GE?
