Solar Eclipse Imaging Instructions
·
Carefully remove the filter from the box without touching the
Baader solar filter material.
·
Check the filter for any possible damage before placing on the
instrument.
·
Do not point the camera or telescope toward the sun before you install the filter.
·
Be sure to securely install the filter by either threading it on
the lens or attaching it to the outside of the optical system.
·
On the variable filters, be sure each of the three Teflon screws
are securely placed on the outside of the optical system
·
Allow telescope and filters to equalize to outside temperature.
(At least 15 minutes)
·
Sunlight on the optical system may warm it enough to cause
internal heat currents that can degrade image quality. Cover the camera or
telescope with a cloth when not in use.
·
Use the instrument near stable atmospheric places. Do not view over pavement or buildings.
