pbyrne Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 ...I've gone and done it. After some weeks of humming and hawing and great advice on the site, I have got the credit card out of retirement and bought a 1.25" Lacerta Herschel Wedge and Lacerta solar finder from 365Astronomy. From FLO I picked up a Baader Solar Continuum filter that was going second hand. At the weekend I am picking up an older, blue tube version, 120mm Evostar, at a price I couldn't resist. My timing leaves a lot to be desired, the sun is at solar minimum and the summer has passed.? I have used solar film in the past and I was never happy with the views. When I looked into the merits of a Herschel Wedge I knew that was the way to go. We know that the sun will now disappear for a couple of weeks, apologies to all.? I know you are all good people and will forgive me.? Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
