Trying to image the sun with my dslr using this dudes technique. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYDzdYkVbGM&t=6s

Wondering if anyone has opinions on a decent eyepiece that would be best optically to do something like this? is the Sirius one he mentions any good? Maybe I should have spent my $ on a Lunt instead. Their design seems to be better suited for solar photography.

For me a PST no longer represents good value at circa £800 new :ohmy: If I had the £800 I think I would put it away, save another £400 and buy a Daystar Quark. I have done some DSLR imaging with my PST (plugged a barlow into the PST and attached the DSLR with a T-Adaptor). You can get passable images that way and do not need an eyepiece. There are lots of reasons why this setup is far from ideal but you have to work with what you have.

One of my early attempts
