- Transit of Venus 2004, Canberra Australia
Here are some images of the 2004 Transit of Venus taken from Canberra, Australia. The transit occured on Tuesday 8 June. The images were taken with a Pentax 330GS digital camera through the 6X30 finder scope of a Celestron C8 telescope. Both the finder scope and main scope had a solar filter covering the objective lens. The solar filter was constructed using Baader Astrosolar film.
