That's very good picture.
I also took picture using baader film with canon 55-250mm lens and the color is gray? Why is that? Did you change the color?

Yep, it looks gray through mine too, I added the colour later to try and make it look a bit more sun-like... Hehe I showed some mates and their response was "that's not the sun, it's white" so thought I'd make it more appealing... Hehe

I saw your thread and thought I'd look at the sun for the first time through my newly acquired 10" Bintel Dob and solar filter.

Thanks mate, I'm all set and ready to go, should be great... I was going to try filtering my 12"dob, but Bintel sold out of filters that size, so I got one for one of my 'toy' scopes and hoped for the best. Result was pretty good, and the smaller scope is GOTO also, so makes tracking a bit easier...
Great photos, hope it's nice and clear on the day..
