looking at sun with tilter filter and SPV
These devices work well visually but not so much with standard astro cameras


tilter is like thousand oaks HAU
but skybender filter tilter is more accurate.

Well done for trying to get the iPhone shot. I have a Baader Prominence filter, it is excellent for visual but a nightmare to image with
