Q&A: Is it OK to expose the camera to Sun Light ?


Question by R G: Is it OK to expose the camera to Sun Light ?
I took pictures of the Solar Eclipse today and I did use a filter on many occasions. But, there was one that I took without. Please check the following link and let me know whether it's OK to take pics like this.

Best answer:
Answer by insiderYou risk damaging your camera by focussing the sun on your sensor.....you wouldn't be the first to write off a camera doing it. And if it's an SLR or DSLR, damaging your retina, too.

But if your camera shows no ill effects and you're not seeing a blurred spot in your vision, you got away with it.

(BTW nobody else seems to have problems putting links in questions.)
