I'll add one of my Mercury transit shots to the many that have been
posted. I set up in the backyard and shot with my 90mm f/12 Ceragioli
refractor and a Canon 20Da. I have material to generate an animation as
I had the camera shooting on a interval timer every 5min. It will take
a lot of work however as the mount was drifting without a proper polar
alignment and I need to re-register them all. I spent the afternoon
making a pair of 22in elevation bearings and wondering over to the
'scope every 15min to center up the Sun.
