Do you just want a blob of light or do you want some detail like sunspots?I wish to photograph the Sun. Can I do this by reducing the strength of the lighting by using 2 semi-crossed polaroid filters?
I'm interested in this too...
I have a pair of solar binoculars (Coronado BinoMite II), I'd like to find the filter they have on them (white light solar filter, pretty much looks like a mirror; I'd also be interested in other solar filters too, Hα maybe) for my lenses. No luck so far.
Something like this, but for a camera lens.
Thanks for the link. Now that I know the part number to look for, maybe I can find one.
I'd send a E-mail to Hoya offering it as a suggestion if they can not be found.

Not a bad idea, but I wonder how large of a market there would be for this? They might not see enough money in it to start production...
Solar filters for telescopes are pretty specialized. You can get them so they transmit very specific wavelengths of light like just the hydrogen-alpha line.I'm interested in this too...

The moon is roughly the same apparent size as the sun in the sky, right? Would it be safe to assume that the level of magnification I would get with the sun would be similar to photographing the moon with my telescope?
