Hello Mike

Wonderful photography :)

Could you please describe how much time it takes to set up the tripod+DSLR+OGPS ?
And how do you proceed ? Do you aim Polar star ? or something else ?
Do you stack several shots ?
etc...

I'm really thinking about buying this module :)

Thank you

Hello Seti

Do you acquire your photos on the SD card of the K5, or on a computer you link to the K5 ?

I used to run Pentax Remote Assistant with my K10 to acquire directly on a laptop, but will it work with a K5?

Thanks

Here's a few photos of a blues festival which took place here in France

A group of old American bluesmen enchanted us all :)

Tamron 70-200, no flash, about 60 feet far from the stage
I really like this lens, it's magical

Hello guys,

Let me introduce myself : i'm a 37yo french man using pentax DSLR since K100D back in 2007. So i had a K100D, which i sold later to buy a K-x. I sold this last one too to buy a K5 ii. And in the meanwhile i used to do some astrophotography with a K-10 i still own.

In broad daylight, i like street photography, portraits on the fly, i did some weddings (starting with friend's ones). And as you've understood, some astrophotos (but i still have to progress in that field)

My optics : pentax 50@1.4, tamron 70-200@2.8, tamron 70-300, tamron 17-50@2.8, sigma 18-50@2.8 macro, orion 80ED@7.5 (astro)

See you soon :)
