A dovetail-modified Stella Mira 66 ED APO refractor was fitted with a Baader OD 3.8 solar filter and an Altait Hypercam 533C OSC cooled CMOS camera was placed at the focus. AstroDMx Capture was used to capture a 1200-frame RAW AVI. The best 85% of the frames were stacked in Autostakkert!4, wavelet sharpened in waveSharp and post processed in GIMP 2.10.
