The PST - Personal Solar Telescope is the world's most popular telescope to observe the Sun. The 40mm diameter, portable dedicated solar telescope has completely internal non-removable (and student safe) solar filtering optics with a a 1.0 angstrom Ha bandpass for great surface detail.  

See the dynamic prominences at the edge of the Sun as well as filaments and other surface details in amazing detail, all in the brilliant and distrinctive red color off hydrogen-alpha light.

Mounting options include use on a standard photo tripod (scope is threaded for a standard camera 1/4-20 mounting bolt).
