I have a bit of a quandary - wondering whether to buy a K3iii with built in Astrotracer, or will I get greater flexibility, and as good a camera by going 2nd hand with an older camera which is O-GPs2 compatible? I've read a lot of stuff about the Astortracer built into the K3iii and as a complete (but expensive) package, it seems a bit clunky when considering processor time etc and issues with the test framing in poor light/strong foreground horizon.
Will I get more (Big) Bang for my bucks (£) by getting an older model 2nd hand and adding a new O-GPS2 which in theory is using different technology to "track"?
Which is a more accurate tracking system? The GPS unit with Astro or the K3iii system?
I couldn't find any threads on any forum about this particular question - buckets of stuff about Astrotracer itself.
Thank you!
