RE: (meteorobs) Re: Watches and Batteries.
My watch is an old Casio Alti-Thermo that I've had for about 7? years.
The T70 can be programmed to take multiple exposures as you say without
battery drain. It operates most of our all-sky camera stations. I'm
currently trying to buy 5 more Comand backs (bodies can be found for
about $A 150-200) but they are hard to come by. If anyone has a
Command Back 70 they want to sell, please let me know!
The Minolta X700 (I think) was the closest to the T70, but it drained the
battery. There is a simple solution in just running a couple of wires
from the battery compartment to a larger capacity battery, but this is a
pain.
I'd like to know what other cameras can do the job to expand the options
of purchasing second hand equipment.
