Which scope for imaging the partial solar eclipse in June

Hi

In anticipation of the partial lunar eclipse on 10th June, I have booked a day off work and now am wondering which scope to set up on my az gti mount to image the event with my canon 600d in video mode.  I have all the solar filters for both scopes and fs. I know my sw skymax 127 would give better detail but also quite tight in the frame and not sure if I'd miss anything going on around the edges of the sun or , whereas the my sw 72ed evostar can easily fit it all into frame, but I'm wondering will I miss the detail to much.  I'm attaching a screenshot from astronomy tools FOV calculator to show you what I mean.  I'm leaning towards to the evostar 72ed which most likey seems the most obvious.

I personally would go for the 72ED, because there might be more going on around the Sun especially if there is a bit of drifting cloud etc..

Have a go with the Moon (same apparent size as the Sun) with both scopes to see if any detail loss is realy significant.

Thank you Alan, I was thinking that but just wanted to gauge an opinion on it. Like you say there might be more going on around the sun or moon at the time

You could argue just using a 50mm lens or similar on your camera and enjoy the ambience..

Thank you, I didn't think of that one. I think I'll stick to the 72ed and canon 600d on video mode now it seems to be the best. Thank you for your advice as I was going with the skymax 127 until now. 😊 now should I try to capture video through my dslr to laptop or just take single frame by frame?
