Hi all,
Been quite a while since I've been able to get the scope out due to the tropical weather. Tonight we finally had good seeing conditions and almost inky black skies! It gave me a chance to test my new Peltier Cooler cold box for the K-3 which worked a treat. It kept the camera at 19c (usually 35-37c) while doing 180s at ISO1600 with 30 seconds break. Just over an hour all up worth of images taken in Mackay in my backyard.
