Lightbulb Nikon 5100 DSLR Astro Pack! Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 + 50mm f1.8 + 18-55mm f3.5

SOLD! Thanks for the interest everyone!
-------------------

I have bought too much astro stuff over summer which I'm blaming on the cloudy nights and am feeling a bit guilty, possibly due to the disapproving looks from my wife every time the postman knocks at the door with mysterious boxes. I've recently switched to Canon.

So regretfully preparing to sell this camera I bought in 2011 mainly for baby photos but ended up recently buying the superlative Tokina 11-16mm wide angle lens for truly spectacular Milky Way shots. It has some coma at corners and I'll include some examples of photos and video taken with this setup.

Also includes the IR remote switch you'll need for any astro work. Includes battery, strap, charger but not memory card which you'll need to buy separately. All good working condition.

Package :
---------------------
Nikon 5100 DSLR Body
Nikon AF-S 50mm f.18 prime lens
Nikon DX VR AF-S 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 kit lens
Tokina ATX Pro DX 11-16mm f2.8 wide angle lens + hood
Nikon MH-24 Battery Charger
Nikon Li/On Battery
Nikon ML-L3 IR Remote switch
T-ring Adapter for attaching to scopes

I'm not really sure about prices so the total is made up based on 60% of RRP for all items $750 AUD + $15 postage anywhere in Australia.

Sample photos attached, and more to be found on deography.com
Examples of video taken with this setup :

Hi Dylan, you posted a week too late for me! I just bought a new Nikon D5300. Looks like a good range of items thrown.

If you have any difficulty moving the Tokina lens I may be interested in purchasing separately from you - let me know if interested.

Yeh the Tokina is a great lens I gotta say. A few people have expressed interest so I will break it up if the package doesn't sell. Love this rig for Milky Way stuff!

Added t adapter for Nikon mounts to attach to scopes too.
