Some might post their sunrises or sunsets here. Where does a mid-day sun photo fit in all of these categories?
I used 150mm glass solar filter over my Sigma 150-600mm C lens. The previews in Live View were not that good, the final photos actually were dimmer and needed to have the exposure increased. Then I slid the white balance way to the right for a yellow sun instead of blueish-white.
I bought the filter 2 years ago at the same time I bought a nighttime light pollution filter. Had in mind to use this for the solar eclipse coming in 2024. Decided to break the seal on it and at least learn what settings I should be using on camera.
