Imaging Solar eclipse

[Davey-T]

Having booked for SGLX and hoping to see the eclipse I was thinking about the best kit to take up the hill to image it.

Choice of Lunt LS60, Quark and 100mm refractor or DSLR W'Light.

Sure there are old threads on this but thought I'd start a new one.

Hi Dave,

I am planning to put on a public viewing in my local village and will most likely use my Lunt 60 (single stack, to get an even field full disc) and my white light rig.  The narrow FoV of the Quark won't make it ideal.

Still if you have to carry the lot up a hill perhaps a 80mm frac, WL and Quark would be best.

looking forward to this event, definitely going to book it off whatever the weather!
