Interesting, thanks for sharing. I did the same today (trials for the big day), using a 6" f/12 Mak and a D7000. The result is below. Besides the obvious field-of-view issue I also faked the colour. The shot was taken with a solar continuum (540nm) filter and thus was all green. It probably also lacks sharpness, having been taken at 1/60s and ISO100.
I'm going to try again, this time with an f/7 ED80, to fit the Sun into the frame. I'm hoping the next weekend will be sunny, I need some more practise...
Cheers
Steffen.
