I am not sure if this was posted earlier. While searching for Pentax stuff, I came across this timelapse video by someone who captured this at Mersing last year using a Pentax K5 ! He was obviously inspired by Mockmoon from the BGM chosen. Just shows the capability of the Pentax K5 (now replaced by new models K5-II and K5s). Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing, Rich!

It's nice to see a good Milky Way timelapse taken from our usual Mersing site.

Btw, anyone knows who the imager is? Anyone wants to "confess"? Nice work!

From the 2nd half of the video, quite a number of other astronomers can be seen in the background just outside the chalet rooms, so I would hazard a guess that it was taken during one of Remus' organised trips last year.

Oh yes, that's Tommy from Kuala Lumpur, an avid Pentax user.
