Another eclipse setup

Here's my setup:

Tak FS-60 with field flattener (focal length ~370mm)
Robofocus - powered by 12V lithium battery from a RC glider
Nikon D800
Still a little bit of metalwork to go on the mount to achieve balance, so these shots were taken on a regular tripod.

Full Frame
100% crop straight out of the camera
100% crop with just a little sharpening in Lightroom.

ISO 100, F6.2, 1/500

With all this preparation from everyone, we're definitely tempting the weather gods!
