Hello All! I haven't posted here in a while but I have been reading and trying to keep up. Great pics everyone! I FINALLY got some clear skies after rain season here in Japan.

The clouds won't always ruin my astro-pics. Sometimes they make it easier for creative pics like this:
Tamron 17-50@17, f/2.8, 1600 ISO, fixed tripod 20sec exposure.
Also this was with my K-5 at prime-focus. Jupiter and the Galilean Moons Europa, Io, Callisto and Ganymede.

I think you're thinking of the O-GPS1, right?... the "Astro-Tracer" function of the GPS unit for Pentax? What Gimbal showed above with the link is what I have (and LOVE). I just got tired of visual astronomy and decided not to buy a whole scope and mount and stuff.

I posted these in an astrophotography thread on here but I wanted to share them with all my friends here in the K-5 forum too. These are my first ever 'stacked' astrophotos. Hope you enjoy. I know some of them are a little distorted. I'm still in the learning process.
Andromeda Galaxy/Pleiades/Horsehead Nebula: all Pentax K-5, Sigma 70-200APO@200mm f2.8, ISO 1600, 25 one minute exposures stacked with DeepSkyStacker, tracked with AstroTrac. The Pleiades was 33 one minute exposures. SEMPER FI!
