Just a comment about using your Nikon for imaging. My D800 had significant corrosion on it's circuit boards when was written off after I dropped it. I suspect this corrosion may have come from repeated dewing events (I've had the whole camera covered in frost after a particularly cold night at Leyburn). The repairer told me the weather seals are only "felt", not proper O-Rings. I'll still use my new D810 for astro-imaging, but will cover it in a plastic bag to hopefully keep some of the moisture off the camera.

Thanks I'll certainly keep that in mind and be a little more cautious about my camera in dew conditions.
