Insufficient tinting, but lens flair got the image at 95%
Yeah, I couldn’t get a good pic of the totality, so my best one was similar
Are you saying that lens flare has flair?
Still better than my pic lol
You need a minimum of fifteen pieces of flair.
This might be bad for the camera sensor.
Is it just me, or does anyone else want a curated list of Reddit posts about people complaining when destroying their cameras from taking pictures of the eclipse?
I point my camera at the sun all the time, It’s not harming the sensor even without a shield. I don’t get it. You don’t have to be paranoid about having the sun in frame. Maybe with a telephoto lens, or a telescope, or if you’ve got a tripod set up and the sensor is exposed for a long time. Regular shots? Go ahead and take a picture of the sun or eclipse.
It is a problem, when the camera is focused on the sun for extended periods of time. The heat concentration on the sensor can damage the IR and or Beyer filter, kill individual pixels or even crack the sensor outright.
Also, be extremely careful with DSLRs, the sensor will be fine, but your eye will not.
