I'm going to need to figure out if the lenses and multipliers I have will work. No new lenses in my future. But a filter I will get.
I probably won't bother with filters myself because I just plan to take video with my Nikon L820 during totality. However, if you want to take pictures during the partial phase, it's pretty easy to make up your own filter from a small piece of Baader AstroSolar film. I've been using it on on telescopes and binoculars for twenty years.
