Tim Dey and I did a test of the Lunt solar scope. We wanted to see if we could take photos using a different camera and a t ring.
We were not able to directly mount a Canon eos and take a photo because the light cone thrown out will not reach the sensor chip.
Many don't use this scope to do photography of the sun.
There may be a modification that Lunt has to allow photos through the Lunt. We have a small 35mm scope so it's not often used by astronomers for photographing the sun. They often use 60mm or other large telescopes. Those solar telescopes are much more expensive.
We will likely be getting a modified tube from Lunt. Thus will be shorter and allow kore photography options.
