eQinox Sun gif

The new Unistellar app version 2.5.0 will goto the sun rather than you having to manually find the sun by how small the shadow of the telescope is.
I took an image a day for five days at about 3pm edt and combined them in a gif.

I can't collimate, focus or do the sensor calibration (dark frame) in the daylight with the solar filter on. So the sun images are taken with the focus from the last night I was viewing DSOs. I have a Meade glass white-light solar filter sf 600 ID 152mm.
