DIY Solar Filter
I used this setup to make the video of the July 11, 1991 eclipse in Baja California. I used Solar Skreen mylar film for the filter element. The film was produced Roger W. Tuthill. The carrier was constructed of cardboard from a binder cover. The filter box fit over the end of a Sigma VT5 5x teleconverter. The threaded end of the converter fit into the 8x optical zoom of my camcorder.
