cam.properties['ExposureTime'] KeyError: 'Key does not exist

could it be that the cam.properties.keys() differ from camera to camera?

>>> cam.properties['ExposureTime']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/strawlab/image-processing-server/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py", line 3066, in run_code

KeyError: 'Key does not exist'

so this is the list of properties from the GigE Basler acA640-120gm
