Saw it today from Rose Bay, Sydney around 3pm. Blocked off the sun with the roof of ,my apartment building and then easily found it with 7 x 50 binos, approx one field of view (maybe a tad more) from the sun. At that time of day, the comet was almost directly above the sun. I guess as the day progresses it'll be more to the left of the sun.
Having spotted it with the binos, it was them remarkably easy to see with the naked eye, although it kept disappearing for a few minutes as high level cloud/haze (almost invisible because of the sun's glare) swept across. It was always easily picked up again in the binos.
Was at North Head this morning and it looks like a good spot, with decent elevation compared to the city. I'll be back over there around 7pm to hopefully see the comet reveal more of itself as the sun sets.
Good luck to everyone that hasn't seen it yet.
