The filter if of two layers of optical mylar from Roger Tuthill. The shiny surfaces face each other and two plastic rings hold the mylar in place and on the cameras. These two fit together much like embroidery hoops. Once the eclipse it total, the filter will be removed for the period of totality. The image from the video camera is recorded on tape and down loaded to a TV so everyone can see.
Preliminary images show the moon.
I used the mode as the exposure is about the same as totality and is the same size. The image from the video camera is recorded on tape and down loaded to a TV so everyone can see.
