Mt Spokane Photography said:So, I'm thinking of ways to get more pixels on the subject by buying or renting a different camera.
I was just wondering myself if I should rent a crop sensor (7Dii or 80D) or use my 5Div and crop..
I'm still going back and forth on a gimbal or geared head, one or two cameras, 400 prime or 100-400ii, with 1.4x or 2x....
any professional thoughts from the group would be welcome.
p.s. Does anyone know how many pixels I'll be left with cropping the 5D (400+1.4x) to crop equivalent?

About 4 pixels left
I seriously looked at the 80D, but it only has a 3 shot exposure bracket ability while a 7D MK II or the FF bodies have a 7 shot exposure bracketing. Since there is so little time during the totality, a 7 shot bracketing is a advantage.
In the end, The Eclipse will only last a short time, but I'll want a camera to use for years. That played into the decision.
Wow, that's not much at all. haha
I cant decide if I should rent or just use my 5Div... I wish my M6 had better bracketing and buffer!
