Thousand Oaks Optical 6" X 6" Black Polymer Solar Film Sheet - 1 Each

Good product clicked images of eclipse with the help of film

Excelente producto para generar una tapa protectora para el ver el sol.

I cut the sheet into 2 3x6 sheets, and cut 2 5x8 sheets of stiff cardboard with a 2.5x5.5 opening. With the film strips taped to the cardboard frames, they were very easy to use to protect eyes, cameras, and binoculars.

Funktioniert wunderbar. Es ist toll, Sonnenflecken mit den eigenen Augen zu betrachten.

La feuille est vraiment parfaite pour ce genre de prise de vue solaire.

I have an existing solar filter for a different scope which is too big. I bought this and made my own custom filter with it. Essentially I found a small (very clean unused) plastic flower pot, which is slightly tapered, that fitted snugly inside the dew shield of my small refractor. I cut most of the bottom off but left enough for a good light proof fit. The pot also has a slightly wider part near the top which butted up against the edge of the dew shield nicely. I opened the solar film package very carefully by using a sharp blade to just score through the tape holding the two pieces of cardboard together. With the film black side up, still on one side of the cardboard, I put a very thin bead of superglue around the rim of the pot and placed it onto the film. After a minute or so, I trimmed off the remaining film with scissors to end up with a perfect solar filter with no creases or wrinkles.
