Many thanks everybody. The K-3 has proven to be really excellent for this kind of thing. The Meade 127mm 5000 scope is also great, Not in stellar league like Tak's etc but very good overall. Weather is the continual enemy. I suspect the K-3 will perform well on long exposures as well, hopefully up to 6 minutes.
