Details:
A static tripod mounted Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ72 bridge camera at 60x optical zoom, fitted with a Baader solar filter, was used to image the Sun. The camera was set to burst mode, ISO-100 and 1/1000s exposure at f/5.9. Images were captured in bursts of three. 82 images, precisely cropped and registered in Nicola Mackin's AstroCrop software were converted to BMPs, formed into an AVI by Virtualdub and stacked in Autostakkert 2. The resulting file was wavelet processed in Registax 5 and post processed in Photoshop.
