The education continues:

For all of the times I've spent in Scotland, I Have never heard of Clootie dumplings before.

Never right Mark but raises a reasoning.

Just enough to for you to consider self assessment maybe?

Mark, its a bigger picture.

The K5IIs with the 0-GPS 1 is a compromise. It's a side benefit of the gps and sensor shift, no put down in any form.

Serious star tracking will need the likes of an AstroTrac TT320X-AG which is why I bought one.

I'm also using mine as street cam (testament that Pentax made such use a reality) but it shows up user errors (in my case).

I have the AstroTrac TT320X-AG but I need another mount below it as I don't want a ball mount between the tripod and Astrotrac.

My biggest issue is finding this "diluted" South pole! Trust me it's a pain.

There is no point in comparing a Z to and ZPS-C camera. No one did with a Blad and we should not do it with a Z.

To date your work is really top class and this is the first time I've seen you stray of the straight line.

Trust yourself and your technique. I see this as more of you putting out your "try this /that" efforts.

You have so much more to offer.

As for astro in the UK?

At least your in a less densely populated area of the UK. Would I buy one in the UK, probably not. Why not?

Because there's so much more available material to shot and the UK may not be the best location for astro work.

You have to work with what's available and to date, you manage that so well.

Don't get too distracted. No one said a Z is easy to master. It can impress one minute and bite you the next. What you can achieve with a K5 IIs you can do with a Z. If not, why not?

I'm still on the learning curve and fortunately its an uphill curve.
