The USB C socket powers my Raspberry Pi. It runs that fine, with 3 USB connections.

I use a mains adaptor with either my K3, K5ii or K-S2. It easily does a 4 to 6 hour shoot at night in cold weather. That is even with a lens heater in the mix. They even power all my astro kit as well. When using for astro, I have a Raspberry Pi (with a USB3 Camera plugged in), my mount, 2 x dew heaters and a DSLR being run by them.
They charge pretty quickly and come with all the kit to charge in your vehicle too.
For 80 to 90 quid they really are good.

It is a Sigma Mirror Ultratel 500mm at f8.
It is in used condition, and comes with a Sigma padded case. It also has the original thread adaptor with a genuine Pentax K-Ring on it, as well as an M42 to K mount adaptor.
On ebay there is one for just over 100 quid. So I am quiet happy to accept a sensible offer.
Payment by bank transfer plus cost of RM SD.

I like the colour one. It gives a better impression of depth and distance. The composition is near perfect.
Great image.... but I do like the B&W one!!
