You may damage your eyes if you use a DSLR so be very very very careful. The camera manual does document that discolouration of the sensor may happen.just asking around, will shooting towards the sun damage the sensor of a DSLR or any digital camera?
i have a UV filter attached on even though i am not sure whether it helps:sweat:
many thanks in advance
I have heard in the past that, it's better and if you still can find those negative film strips, placed at least 2 to 3 pieces in front of the len when pointing towards the sun.
Those negative film strips will helps to reduce the glare from the sun.
If you want to do solar photography, there are ND filters to do that. Look for ND10000.I have heard in the past that, it's better and if you still can find those negative film strips, placed at least 2 to 3 pieces in front of the len when pointing towards the sun.

if you are referring shooting sunrise sunset, you are worry too much.thanks alot, yeah i do not point the camera towards the sun for long periods, try to compose the pic in my mind before pointing and shooting it as quickly as i can.
i was always afraid damaging my eye sight and the camera, so try to do it as quickly as possible.
thanks alot
if it is too strong, images will be whitewash, and if you can't record anything, time to pack up and go.eh no, i mean mid-late afternoon sun, sometimes near noon, cause the very strong rays and light provide a very nice contrast to the clouds.
i am sure you have seen instances where the sun gets behind a cloud and there are beams of light shooting out from the fringe of clouds
i think that makes for a very nice picture indeed:thumbsup:
Can it use a very dark filter like those meant for IR shooting or probably even darker one? I believe Sun Ray are strong enough to produce the sun image even you use a very dark filter.
actually i don understand why you guys so weird
cannot shoot at sun meh
if cannot capture the beauty of the sunset
i rather not photograph anything at all
