Hi all,

I have an 8" Newt that I'd like to observe the sun with. I've looked at a couple of the PST scopes and they are really nice, But I cant justify the expense and hassle of dragging two scopes around. I was wondering if anyone has any info at all on a H-alpha filter that I could use to safely view the sun? I'm not really interested in using the white solar film as I cant see the corona or CME's with that, just sunspots.

I have looked, but cant seem to find anything that suits my needs (and is safe... ).

I did mention safe right? I like my eyes.

Cheers,
Matt.
