Thanks Tim.
No it doesn't. What I do is setup my telescope on an imaging run and then go out into the paddock and take a nightscape. Typically apart from a refocus every now and then (or at least until primary mirror temps and ambient is less than .5C different).
A nightscape like this only took me about 15 minutes out in the field, probably less.
I normally setup a tracker mount but this time I had left it at home and so this was a really crappy tiny weak tripod so amazing it worked out. I use a self timer on the camera and electronic first curtain shutter to remove any chance of vibrations.
