When I first started looking into solar observing, I also thought the price of the products was expensive and that I couldn't justify the purchase,but took the gamble and bought a Coronado PST,and was hooked from day one.So hooked that three years down the line, three H alpha scopes, three H alpha filters plus a Lunt Solar wedge,I am still impressed with the views which can change minute by minute and I can say that it is now my primary astro activity(I have been a night observer for a couple of decades).
If you want great H alpha solar views the only real options are the dedicated H alpha scopes and filters.They might be expensive, but the effort that goes into making these scopes and the spectacular views they provide,even in the base models, is more than justified.
