+Bino-viewer Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Beautiful day, so decided to set up the refractor. The sunspots regions are numbers 2480 (the larger one) and 2483. Number 2485 is faintly visible on the other side. Prime focus with the Sony A7s.

Doc Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Nice images Rob. I haven't done any solar for quite a long time. Need to start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Very nice crisp images Rob. The unusual cool mint green colour is refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 They turned out well, I'll bet it was nice to see the Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) Thankyou all. Nice sometimes to do this hobby without half frozen feet & hands at this time of the year, and get a vitamin D boost at the same time The Mk V bino is a treat to use when viewing the sun, and one of the reasons i brought the wedge in the first place was its compatibility with the Mk V The fainter sunspot group (2485) on the left of the disc was immediately apparant once i'd switched over to the bino, where before in mono mode using the 19 Pan (48x) i hadn't even noticed it. I'm really looking forward to the Mercury transit event in May. Edited January 17, 2016 by Bino-viewer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
