RE: Shooting the moon…trying to at least
Cool office building and nice shots of the Sun. To get clear shots of the sun without all the flaring, you need a really heavy filter. I used 2 welding lenses stacked on each other to get even a partial eclipse, and one lens when the Sun was almost totally covered.
Thanks. I used a solar filter when the eclipse was still partial, but it would have been impossible to shoot the building through that. For the short time that the eclipse was in totality, I shot without it.
Yes, absolutely impossible to get BOTH into the same shot with a solar filter on. During totality, it is said to be safe to look directly at the Sun, so the camera should be able to handle that quite nicely.
