Solar Imaging -Safety

I am considering purchasing a CCD camera and thinking about its uses (and the 2012 eclipse in my backyard - FNQ).

My question is - how safe is the use of a solar filter. Is there any risk to a persons eye sight.

Secondly - I believe a solar filter is fitted to the telescope so this is presumably safe. What happens with the findersope?

Thanks
