How to Prepare for The Solar Eclipse 

Early April is infamous for thick cloud cover in the Hamilton and Niagara Region. Hoping we have cloud-free skies on April 8th so everyone can enjoy the eclipse and get some wonderful photos and videos.

Nice collection

Got my Nikon p1000

Oh good you took my advice and stuck the filter on the front of the lens.

What amount of ND is appropriate?

I'm bringing my Nikon Z gear to the solar event. Nikon Z8, Z6ii, and Z7ii. Nikon Z 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6 VR S, Nikon 400 mm f/4.5 VR S, 1.4x TC, Nikon 24-120 mm f/4 S, and Nikon 20 mm f/1.8 S. Kase Wolverine ND16 Solar Filters. Now hoping for clear skies.

Why is the Part 2 a private video? I got the email from Nikon with link yesterday but it doesn’t open.

Would a 2x t/c on a 300 f/4 PF be suitable for photographing the eclipse or is limiting to a 1.4x (or even a 1.7x) t/c a better idea for any particular reason?
