How does the Pentax go for astro? I've heard it has a sky tracking feature.
Thanks Troy - pretty happy with Pentax so far.
I have a K-5 and about a year ago acquired a K-5iis which I got modded. To use the sky-tracking feature on the K-5/K-5iis I would need to buy a GPS attachment but I believe it works pretty well for wide-angle and would probably be good for shooting nightscapes. Brad (zardos123) has the full-frame K-1 which has the sky-tracking feature built in.
