Dan, sadly based on the nature of this thread (link to thread http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...ad.php?t=98297 ) any advice given could lead to anyone of us being sued/jailed if you damage or lose your eyesight during the eclipse...

best I can do is refer you to this page -> http://joe-cali.com/eclipses/PLANNIN...pse_photo.html

From the web page at:
http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages...eExposure.html

The suggested exposure for to capture the corona at f8, ISO100 is between 1/400s for the inner corona and 1" for the outer corona.

That level of brightness wouldn't be visible through eclipse glasses or through solar filter. I'm also not sure the corona would even be bright enough to show up through most projection methods would it?

So is there an approved way of viewing the corona?
