Here's how the SM60 is set up for solar observing!
The table has a 20 ltr grey tub, lid hinged with Gaffa tape and held open by a wire coathanger. The Old sheet stops the glare on the Laptop screen.

A quick'n'easy set up.

I've done very similar except I use a cardboard postal box with the lid hinged up.

Thanks for the tip on using a shroud.

The DMK is a fantastic camera for Ha solar imaging. I got mine because I haven't seen better imaging, using a PST or similar size, than Paul Haese's who uses/used it.
