Oh, that poor 600mm lens! Makes me cringe just looking at it. At least they were able to fix it in house so it wasn't completely ruined.
I didn't have a solar filter for my digital point-and-shoot, so I just taped a spare pair of eclipse glasses over the lens opening. No damage done, but the photos didn't turn out very well: the auto-focus couldn't focus on the sun, or the moon last night, which was orangey-red due to forest-fire smoke particles in the night sky. I need a better camera. [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure.png[/img]/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" title=":/" width="20" />
