Exactly.

However, for the unfiltered photography of the corona during totality,
bracketing is essential.

Very likely.

I'm planning on two separate cameras for that.

My plan exactly. I don't think I'm going to try to get 1 FPS for the whole event, but I'd like it for totality and just before and after.

My plan is to have the K-3ii on a tripod with bigma (500mm) and astrozap filter. I won't put on a 2x, both for IQ and because I'll have more latitude in making sure that the sun stays in the frame.

I'll be using my K-1 for landscape etc. shots during totality.

I gotta ask? Why the bracketing? To make HDR timelapses? Or were you
trying to make the best out of changing light without bulb ramping?

For the K-3 II, it's close to 1/second, but might fall a little short
of that. I did a timelapse with 3-shot bracketing at an interval of 3
seconds, using an external intervalometer, and it mostly kept up but
there were occasional dropped shots. I was using a recent Sandisk
Extreme card and shooting raw. I'm going to use a 4-second interval
(per 3 shots) during the eclipse.

What is the fastest rate that a k3 can continuously take photos without 
overflowing the buffer? Once a second?
