Part 1

I’ve found this configuration best for the Canon EOS Rebel T7 with a Celestron – EclipSmart Safe Solar Eclipse Telescope – 50MM Refractor:

  • f/0 F-stop 1/50 sec.
  • ISO-200 0 step

8/3/24 (1:21 PM CST)

Canon EOS Rebel T7 f/0 F-stop 1/50sec. ISO-200 step Exposure bias 50mm Focal length Pattern metering mode (Good – SNIP) Celestron – EclipSmart Safe Solar Eclipse Telescope – 50MM Refractor Cropped, Rotated and Brightness and Contrast Adjusted (GIMP) to Match Satellite Image and Axis of Rotation
