Easiest thing to do is just point the camera at the sun or moon
(whichever is being transitted) and guide on that. Just fire off the
shutter with fast sequence turned on at the right time, captureing
several seconds starting before the transit starts and several seconds
after. That will cover a slight time variance for your clock.
