A viewer asked for a full breakdown of a quick and easy solar astrophoto session so here it is - warts and all. This rig is actually really small, cheap and portable - here is everything I used:
QHY200M Planetary Camera: bit.ly/4152EbY
Lunt40mm Solar Telescope: bit.ly/3sP8KMX
Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer GTI Tracking Mount: bit.ly/3sUFOXZ
SOFTWARE (All Free except Photoshop)
Firecapture - firecapture.de
AutoStakkert!4 - autostakkert.com
PIPP - pipp.software.informer.com
IMPPG - greatattractor.github.io/imppg

(obviously, you need a computer too.)
