hmm thanks, that should be ok. I'm happy to grind down the adapter.

Using the canon (and you may need a modded one with increased Ha sensitivity) you are only getting to use 1 in 4 pixels, though there may be some bleed across wells.
I have a modded 40D now, so will that work ok? How will it attach to the PST?

go here http://astro-nut.com and download the Solar Primer PDF. You will find all you need in there including processing and false colour images
Thanks - will have a look!
