Thanks, all...

I really greatly prefer straight LRGB on this one rather than narrowband...looks more natural. There are a tremendouns number of subtle interplay of colors, and the dust above the "broom" is easily seen with the more golden star colors.

Pentax Astroimaging without a mount

Posted By Rick Krejci

That's really cool. Sounds like it uses GPS location and camera alignment data to know which way the sky should be moving (and how much). Must also use focal length.

It'll be interesting when real use shows how useful it is (how long of exposures at what focal length). And, can Pentax sensors rotate, or just shift?

Apparently a new Pentax uses the digital shake system to track the stars during a long exposure.

ANybody know anything about this?
