Yes, I used a 4" refractor with a 26 mm eyepiece giving a magnification of 38X. You could probably do pics with your dob. I haven't tried with mine though. These aren't timed exposures so you don't have to worry about tracking.

I used a white light solar filter on the end of the telescope. That is what gives the sun the orange color. For some reason the camera shows the yellow/white spot when taking a picture. It's not there just looking with your eye. I'm not much of a photographer so I couldn't tell you why that happens.
