I'm hoping somebody further north got some better photos than mine, but here
they are anyway.
In case anyone wants to start planning ahead, the Great American Solar
Eclipse is due 21 Aug 2017. The path of totality will begin somewhere in
the Pacific Ocean west of Portland Oregon and sweep across the U.S.
ending somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, south-east of Charleston, SC.
Since you have already replaced it, it would be interesting to see a
side by side test of it, and the new one.
Sure thing. What would be the best test cases for a clean lens against one that
has stuff in it? Scratching my head here. Flare resistance and contrast come to
mind.
