I want to try use my iPhone SE to take photos of the solar eclipse on August 21, 2017. Unfortunately I am not in the path of totality, so it's going to be about an 85% partial eclipse for me.
What will I need besides my iPhone SE?
Do I need an eclipse filter? I already bought a few of those $2 eclipse glasses from Lowe's. Couldn't I just put one of those in front of the iPhone lens instead of buying an actual $30 eclipse camera filter?
What about a telephoto lens attachment - would that help at all?
Also, are there any camera apps that would be better at taking photos of the sun instead of the built-in iPhone Camera app?
Anything else you would recommend? Thanks!
