Next month, on April 8th, a total solar eclipse will occur over North America for the first time in seven years. Unfortunately, due to a family trip and a lecture tour afterward, I will already be back in China and do not want to fly back to the U.S. for it, so sadly I will have to miss it. Here, I am re-sharing the video of the total solar eclipse I shot in 2017 for your reference. All the footage in the video was captured by me alone with three cameras. The difficulty of shooting a total solar eclipse is very high, so if you plan to shoot this eclipse, be sure to check out the Planit Pro app which has everything you need for a successful eclipse shot. The following ephemeris pages are relevant.
1. Eclipses page for the date and time, totality zone.
2. Exposure page for the exact exposure settings for all the phases of the solar eclipse.
3. Sequence page to find out the focal length needed to include all the stages of the solar eclipse progress.
