I adjusted the exposures as I went along Dennis. They ranged from 1/10 sec (@ f/6.3) early on, to 6 seconds (@ f/5) during totality.

Cheers,

Thanks for the details Stephen that is useful information. I had the interval timer grabbing shots every 5 minutes and I think that for the next eclipse, I might just carefully change the exposure on the fly depending upon the stage of the eclipse, rather than keep the same settings throughout.
