The Osprey offers excellent versatility and power for its low price. Designed from the top down as a cheap but complete cruiser, the Osprey utilizes the best the Caldari have to offer in state-of-the-art armor alloys, sensor technology and weaponry - all mass manufactured to ensure low price. In the constant struggle to stay ahead of the Gallente, new technology has been implemented in the field of mining laser calibration. A notable improvement in ore yields has been made, especially in the hands of a well trained pilot.

Summary
Osprey is the best standard mining cruiser. It has a bonus to mining lasers like the Scythe, which outshines the bonus to mining drones on the Vexor and Arbitrator, and it has better CPU, making it easier to fit Mining Laser Upgrades. If you can't fly a mining barge yet then the Osprey is your best choice.
