Hey -- you don't need to own an old camera. This is an ideal time to buy one. Lots of barely used fine film cameras are cheaply available.
I had a nice ZX-5n but could not resist upgrading to a like new PZ-1p for $50. Given the price of film and processing it makes little sense not to use a fine older camera. For digital Pentax users with a full frame "K mount" lens, the opportunity to shoot film with a fine camera has never been better.
Processing of a 35mm 36 frame roll is $11 bucks for development and scanning. (+postage)
Digital and Film ... what a deal.

It has been stated that the
K3 ii Astrotracer function is NOT as good as
the K3 with the
Pentax O-GPS1
It is reported that star trails show up sooner on the K3 ii
and that the K3 with O-GPS1 can get at least double the exposure time
before star trails appear.
Comments please.

Remember back when the Nikon D700 came out at 12 MP and it was a fantastic low light camera.... My preference would be for a fantastic low light Pentax FF.
Please spread the FF low light rumor ... if it will make it come to pass.
