I didn't think that through very well - I take it filters generally go on the front of the scope then? Reflectors act as a giant magnifying glass yea and would make 10" of light come through to a cm or two on the sensor/filter??

I'm planning on using my Sigma 500mm and Sony a77 but with the Thousand Oaks solar filter for my ST80. Mike is doing the same with a solar filter and Sigma 400mm on a Canon. However the sun isn't all that big in the image.
If the weather is junk I'll put it on my StarLapse. If it's OK I'll piggyback the camera on my C8 (with Baader filter) to use that one as a guide scope mounted on my G11.
