I am a complete novice to solar viewing. I have a routine white light filter and enjoy it. However, I see these mega expensive H-alpha solar filters/telescopes advertised from time to time and the pictures look intoxicating.
Is there any advantage to having an night sky h-alpha filter on the eyepiece (the kind lumicon and others sell) in conjunction with a white light solar filter in front of the telescope? I understand it wouldn't rival the expensive filters but could it put more detail into the surface of the sun?
Lumicon warns against solar visual viewing with the filter, but I think that is direct viewing.
Is it dangerous?
Anyone ever tried it?
