  • Recording video with the sun in the frame. How would you protect camera sensor?

    Hello everyone. Very new member here.

    How do you go about filming with the sun in the frame without risking damage to a Canon 80D’s sensor? This seems to be the most elusive topic when it comes to researching it online. Any help is much appreciated.

    neutral density filters don’t protect your cmos from non-visible IR and UV radiation.
    you need a solar filter lens certified ISO 12312-2. these will not protect eyesight, just cameras sensors.
