Tomorrow a thin strip across the united states will be covered by the moon's shadow! We are JUST outside of this area by about 100 miles or so! Where we are, we will only receive about 97% of the totality of the Eclipse but i'm still going to try to take some pictures!!!
Hopefully i can shut the sun down a notch or two with these 3 4X ND filters i've got!
We will see what happens I guess!
The last time I tried to take pictures of a (partial) Solar Eclipse I didn't have the 70-200mm lens I do now. I didn't have any filters of any kind!
I had a Canon 7D I believe and a Vintage Yashica 75-230mm f/4.5 M42 Mount Adapted to Canon.
This picture pushed the limits of the 7D!
With any luck i can get some pretty cool stuff tomorrow!!!
Hi i just followed you and i upvoted your post i hope you do the same . Thank you

Be careful. Remember to wear your glasses even taking the photos. Protect your eyes and gear!
If you were here in CoMo, I would smack you for trying to take pictures and not first hand enjoying it... but since you're further from the totality line, I expect some beautiful shots.

Best of luck, i am sure those ND filters will be more than enough, couple with a fast shutter and slow aperture :) Can't wait to see the results as 97% is pretty much all of it :) You are lucky to be in that location and lets hope the day is clear for you mate.

Yeah from what i understand ONE should be enough!! But if you have 3 you might as well try to use them right?

Sure, why not :) You can open up aperture and try to get a nice bokeh on that eclipse lol
