I’m a bargain hunter myself and really worked that angle before making
the decision to go with the 15-30.
I already have an FA 20-35 f4, so I was looking for something that would
do better . The 20-35 is good at the wide end when stopped down to f8 or
11 and is very good at the long end. But
I borrowed Larry's 15-30 for a couple of shots while we were in California in
November 2016 - I
confirm Mark's comments on exposure between areas of different brightness and
boy, that barrel
distortion! That was on a K5ii, maybe not so bad on the K1. Interesting lens,
however, and very
sharp.
hehe ... perhaps a bit..

I'm really glad you posted about using this lens for shooting the milky
way. As it turns out the trip I'm taking up north in a couple weeks puts
will put me literally about 2 miles away from a dark sky preserve at the
tip of Michigan's thumb.

Another shot with the K-1 and the D FA 70-200/2.8. (Love this lens.) I did
boost saturation a bit on this shot in rendering. In part, because the turkey
was so lacking in color.

I may be incorrect about the image difference between a refractor &
reflector. I **should** know, but I would need to check.
In any event matching the alignment of the TTL extension with the O-GPS1
attached (to the telescope tube, presumeably) would add another
complication (possibility for error

Your TTL idea would be unnecessary on a refractor, so you must be thinking
of using a Newtonian design. In that case I don’t think it would work
because the image is reversed. I think the program in the O-GPS would be
designed to shift the sensor in only one direction (the one that work with

I've been enjoying some photo making with the MiNT SLR670a using the new

curve that the last Impossible Project v2.0 B did, and more latitude. It's
easier to get the exposure right on the money.

- no real need for a latitude wedge, just
