I'm for Number 1. Is the K20 full spectrum or set to a specific filter. I'd be interested to know what filter was used for these shots?

I have the invoice from Advanced Camera Services for the work. The part description says a 720nm IR Filter.

K3 does need the 0-GPS1 accessory afaik, but if it has any means to enter latitude, North and tilt manually it might still work. Look for a post on DP Review from Roland Karlsson - 'Astrotracer do not really need GPS'.

Thanks John... i will have a hunt!

I have recently got a K3.

I do a lot of Astrophotography and I know it has an astrotracers, but do I need the GPS Reciever to use it?

Thanks

You've certainly captured a different perspective on the comings and goings there Spad.

Nice to see a different focal range in use to what one would expect.

It was good for capturing some nice skies as well which I think look better than a plain blue sky.
