Great idea to ask for advice from IIS before you start!

What about a set of 8x50 binoculars, and a copy of Heaven's Above, A binocular guide to the Southern Skies by Robert Bee?

It might be difficult for you to hold the binocular steady, so why not add a binocular tripod adapter.

Just remember to never look at the sun through anything (eg. camera, magnifying glass, binoculars, telescope)

Cheers
