Hello Folks,
I've been a member here for a long time, but it's been so long since I last logged in that my account was deleted. Nevertheless, I still consider myself to be a beginner in photography.
On November 11 I wish to photograph the transit of planet Mercury across the face of the Sun. I have an equatorial mount for my K5, and a 49 mm white llight solar filter for my Pentax SMC DA 50-200 mm lens. By my quick calculation, Mercury subtends about 7 arc seconds. Will my lens provide enough magnification to image Mercury?
Thanks, Tom
