Do let me know the camera type and lens aswell.

I had miserable time focussing on the eclipse shots.
I was going to hook the camera to th elaptop and use Focus Assist or EOS Utility via Live View to focus... walked back to the car once already to get the laptop... forgot the cable!

I did what Dennis did, that is I used Live View at 10x to get focus on the spokes of the wheel... effective infinity. Modded Canon 450D, 70 to 300 mm lens @ 300 mm, ISO 800, f5.6, 0.6 sec.
