Oct 24, 2014 15:19 | #8 Thanks, The towels are to shade and cool the cameras else they get very very hot. The main camera was the Canon 5D2 with 100-400 mm lens and thousand oaks glass solar filter, all these eclipse images are from this camera. The other camera is the Canon 7D with 70-200mm and DIY baader mylar filter. They also shade the lcd for live view and image review. Cheers,

Oct 24, 2014 22:45 | #10 All very nice Tony . Nice setups too ! Where did you get the filter holder for 70-200mm ? Do you use ND filters a lot with this bracket ? That Solar filter for the 100-400mm is very nice also .

That actually looks like a nice ND set .

Oct 24, 2014 23:31 | #15 BTW Tony if I were you I would try to get the Mods to put this back into the regular astronomy section instead of the Talk section . You are producing images so the Talk section is the wrong place , it needs to be seen and commented on and it will get more in the Regular astronomy section .
