Affordable Homemade Solar Filter for Your Camera Lens!

Both are DIY options so the question is, do you use a mounted filter or a cardboard hat? I explain the differences and why they're both useful and when.

One bit of advice I didn't mention in the video is that you can use tape to fix the zoom and focus of the lens in place so that it stays static when you remove and add the threaded filter onto your lens.

Second bit of advice, I don't show it in the video but you can use black tape, paint, or anything opaque to wrap around the seams of the eclipse filter tube to make sure there is no light leak. I always forget that step until I do my testing!
