For some reason I am having trouble visualising the ingress and egress areas when looking through the filtered 12" Newtonian.
I must be spatially challenged?
I resorted to using Starry Night and Paint to put these cheat sheets together. The goal is to magnify the correct area of the Sun for taking video of Venus as it passes through 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th contacts. The images with the text in the correct orientation are the natural views and the other images are what I should see through the eyepiece.
Has anyone else been through this exercise?
Are these screen grabs correct for the location of Venus through the eyepiece?
Thanks,
Stu.
