Here is a video of the entire total solar eclipse taken with Seestar S50 smart telescopes. The partial phases were recorded by me, and footage of totality were graciously provided by Tom Knudsen and Roscoe Lando. Roscoe and I were in Houlton, Maine. Tom was in Newport, Vermont.
I had high hopes for the Seestar, and honestly it exceeded my expectations. The biggest unknown for me was during totality, but if you look at Roscoe and Tom's footage, it did great!
For the partial footage, it was very windy, and although the telescope is pretty low to the ground, it was struggling. I tried to create a wind break to help, but there was only so much I could do. I did smooth out some of it in the video editor.
The partial phases were a timelapse with one photo every second. I stopped and started the video a few times just so the files weren't too big. The footage was then sped up in the video editor. The totality footage was captured as a timelapse and a video.
