When taking pictures of eclipse will a regular polarizing filter work or is there a special filter needed?

I don't know about filters, but it is my understanding that it is impossible to capture the full effects of the eclipse with today's technology. I read that you would actually have to take multiple pictures at multiple exposures and photoshop them together to end up with a decent photo.

To be clear about the eyesight damage...a Polarizer filter is not strong enough to let you look at the eclipse

I am more concerned about camera damage than eye damage, I can use screen on back for that.
