Solar Filter for Canon EOS 1000D
Hey everyone,
I have been doing a bit of research where I can and when I can (time permitted) and I am planning on having a bit of fun going to try image the solar eclipse. I live in Darwin so hoping to find a nice area to get some images of it.
I am going to buy some of the glasses from Ice in Space purely for viewing with the naked eye, but I am also planning on trying to image with the EOS 1000D if I can manage to get everything sorted before then. I believe I am going to need a Solar Filter for the lens, but I am unsure of where I can get one, I have tried searching around for them but I don't specifically know where to find them. If you need any details about the lenses I have let me know (I'll have to dig them out after work.)
Is there also anything else I will need for protection on both my camera and myself while imaging this beautiful object?
