Just curious, do you have the little 35mm Lunt? Only heard great things about it.

As per sig, I have the 35. I have seen some great things with it, as reported here:

Picked it up for a very good price secondhand. I must attach the webcam to it one of these days.

amazing images the filament image is fascinating to look at, the sun is changing constantly which makes it an interesting object to view.

That video is amazing, it puts the size and power of the sun into perspective. How big would that filament have been??? The scars it leaves behind are fascinating
