Received my 3.8 ND Baader solar photo film over the weekend, and put the third film into my solar filter today. I also put silver colored tape over the flap of that one, as a reminder for when I'm using it, that it's different and not to look through the scope when that one is open (photographic use only).

There's a gap on the top there, where it fits around my dovetail rail.
I took some photos today, although they aren't what I'd call sharp. Also the bottom of the sun kept going darker when the sun got lower in the frame. I wonder if I made the off axis filter for the photographic film too big. I can't think of any other reason, because it doesn't happen with the other filters. Easy fix though, just make a smaller ring to go on top of it. I'll try that tomorrow.
I'll give Registax 6 another big go with these photos and see if I can figure out how to use it this time, hehe. Will post the results
