Not sure if I should post here.
I have a Pronto 70.4mm f6.8 that easily shows a full solar disc with a Solarmax 60mm with visual observing. However, the 2 webcams I have have an effective focal length of around 5 mm. The image is about 70-80% of the solar disc. I am trying to use ANY focal reducer that might give me the full disc, but I lack focuser in-travel, I think only by about 3-5 mm.I can't afford a DSLR at this stage, plus I have no skill with DSLR.
Am I screwed? Any experience or thoughts surrounding this appreciated. The interest is imaging the Venus transit.
Cheers. Marc Whitsett
