Re: Can my Canon G9 be setup to capture total eclipse of sun?

The best way to record an eclipse imho, is to project the image onto a white sheet of paper or cardboard with a telescope and aim the camera at that.  The projected image can be any size you wish.  For a video shoot you will need some sort of tracking arrangement of course.
