Hi, I have a Production Camera and would like to shoot the forecooming SOLAR ECLIPSE without burning my camera's sensor but also without putting too much ND in front of it.. Any suggestions? Fast shutter and wide iris or the other way round. ISO 200 ? etc... ?
Thanks

Here's some good info

The black and white film idea seems pretty good. I could send you some but it wouldn't make it in time. If you have a film photographer friend he could get it to you.
