On the subject of the eclipse - I took some crap photos of one a
while back with my film camera, so I'm going to have a go with the
digital, conditions permitting. Am I right in thinking I need more
or less daylight settings for this one?

Daylight white balance for sure. Exposure I donno, it's digital
doesn't cost anything to take a picture look at it and erase it if
it's rubbish.

I'm going to have a go. I have yet to get an decent picture of the
moon, always way to over exposed. Think I might use spot metering and
see what the automatics think should be used and go from there.

Might be a bit chilly though, 8C ATM but if the wind gets up that soon
becomes an effective 0C or lower... Hopefully the large bank of cloud
to the SE will stay there and not come up here.
