Equipment:

AT60ED, Canon T5i, 2x Barlow, Homemade Solar filter, Orion Skyview Pro Mount

Description:

The total cost of this was about $12 ($10 for the solar sheet and $2 for construction paper). I tested this out with and without a Barlow (f/6 360mm FL vs f/12 720mm FL). This was created as part of my solar eclipse/solar safety outreach that I'm doing in person and online to show that you can safely view the sun without spending a lot of money. This can be easily adapted for binoculars as well.
