Solar Filter for a 10" Dob

[GoodOleJim]

Hey guys! I have an Orion 10" Dob. I'm looking for a solar filter for it. What do you suggest?

Baader solar film!  Works a treat.

The only thing is that we are heading deep into a solar minimum just at the moment, and white light views are likely to be bland until we get some sunspots again.  When we do though, you'll get great views - pretty amazing for the low cost of the film.

I agree, the Baader solar film is excellent for viewing sunspots and surface granulation. 

Though there has been a couple of sunspot groups over the last two weeks they are the exception at the moment.

Aye, I'm choosing a relatively poor time, indeed. Tax return in the states is here, and I need to spend my return on something nice! :D
