Solar Photography

[Ray?]

OK, thanks again. I been doing more searching since that post and I think the penny has now dropped. I guess I'm relegated to white light photography of the sun, as I simply can't justify the expense of such a filter system, or even a Coronada PST.

Best I put my sights and piggy bank more towards the night sky, and leave old Sol to the specialists.

Cheers

Ray

Lumicon used to sell a 2A Prominence filter for use in an f20 beam.
Doesn't appear on their current website........

Ray just start saving, spend a year saving for it or maybe two and then you will get what you want.

Yes, that's about how I have to go about things Paul. I'm on a carers pension these days, so I have to decide on which way to go, put the blinkers on & save for what I want. I don't think any HA filter kits or PST's are in my future though, as much as I'd like to go that route.

A few whitelight images from the Thousand Oaks + SCT every now & then will satisfy me for now.
