Observing the Sun in White Light
A look at ways to view and image the sun in white light. You can add a solar filter to the front of your telescope, or replace your diagonal on a refractor telescope with a solar wedge for great white-light views of the sun. Here are links to the specific filters that I use:
Filter for Celestron C8: https://amzn.to/3rbxqzf
Filter for eVscope or C5: https://bit.ly/3r5qSly (measure the outside diameter of your telescope to make sure you are buying the correct size).

Baader Solar Continuum Filter: https://bit.ly/3LMBtK1
Polarization Filter: https://bit.ly/3LJDxCE
