Guest Fluke Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Guys I haven't a clue - what settings would give me a good chance of getting half decent photos through the canon 1100d, hooked up to the hyperion zoom? I can see some nice sharp sunspots through the zoom, but when I attach the camera the live view is out of focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Dan, I use 1/50th ISO 200 but 1/30-1/75 depending on the brightness of the Sun. Just have a practise on the Sun using Freeview for focusing. ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 With my 350D on the 200p with no barlow, but with apature cut to 2inches, I found ISO100 @ 1/2500th of a second was about right IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Thanks Mike, when the sun comes out again I'll have another play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
