Excellent and encouraging post. I'm doing something similar but for back packing and public transport so your post was very informative. Couple of questions i) How long does the battery on the A7 last and would you think the A7 was a better option than a colour CCD astro camera such as the Atik Ultrastar which has very low power consumption? ii) I looked at portable mounts and it came to a choice between the Smart EQ and the Adventurer. They bot look good the Adventurer because it is well represented in Australia and the Smart Eq has a chequered history but can guide in DEC and has Go To. wondered if you had considered the Smart EQ and your thoughts on it?

Thanks for your terrific post and blog
