Currently Using my Fuji XT-2 with the 55-200, 35 f1.4 and samyang 12mm on a basic star tracker that i picked up second hand last year. Not had to chance to use it much yet really, I was attempting to use a full laptop controlled goto telescope setup last year but i sold it all as i realy couldnt be bothered with the hours of faff to get it working and running wel every time i wanted to use it.
I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a Sky Adventurer GTI goto mount tomorrow and using it with a Nikon D7100 and a samyang 14mm F2..... This might end up being a massive faff with all the bias frames required etc, but did the typical 'how hard can it be' thought process....
I dont think it will be too bad, you can get away with doing one session and taking all the bias and dark frames etc at the iso's you want to use then after the first merge you can just reuse the created master files for every future project.
I went out to my parents at the weekend in a dark sky zone and imaged m33.
