Sling Load EC130 vs 350/H125

I would like to have thoughts on pros and cons. Let me start the list, and if you have experience on both helicopters sling operation, i would love to hear what your thoughts is.

Pros ec130
- Sling load 1500kg
- Less db than H125/350
- up to 7pax plus pilot (4+4config)
- less operation cost than H125


Cons
- less reference sling load due to mirrors, no floor window
- way more expensive to buy

I need to figure out how the ec130 is flying slingload vs the as350/Astar/H125, any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks
