This is my third total and being on mainland Australia I have chose the following options.
I am using my CGE mount for stability. Setup will be around 3 am in the morning to beat out the crowds from our location. Perhaps earlier.
I am using my TSA refractor for white light imaging with my D3 Nikon. Viewing the phases and imaging those with a Lunt wedge. At totality or very near to it I will change this out to image the corona.
For Ha I am using (I hope) my new Lunt LSHa80 with Point Grey Research 2.8mp camera and lap top. I am still working up some ideas about how to sustain power on the beach for the duration of the eclipse.
All piggy backed. It is an imaging challenge, not for everyone but something I want to do.
