Albuquerque will have an eclipse of about 75% this evening. Assuming the
sky is clear, I will try to shoot it with a 400 mm. lens. I'd like to
get some landscape in the shot as well, so I may also use other lenses.
I'll shoot color negative film. What's the best way to meter for this?
Thanks,
Joe

Actually, the secret is bracket like mad and then bracket some more. And don't be
stingy on film.
I was lucky enough to be able to photograph the 1999 total eclipse over Europe.
Awesome!
I want to do it again, properly this time, now I know what to expect!
