How to destroy your equipment during a solar eclipse
#5
Switching to mirrorless I'm even more careful, because with the mirror I was primarily worried about my eyes; now that my eyes are safe, there's the risk that I forget about the equipment. I do shoot into the sun, but always mentally counting a timeout before giving up. Of course I'm talking about generic photography with the sun in the frame, and not eclipse or sun-focused (no pun intended) photos...

 

Did you note the final statement about the fact that insurance doesn't cover this kind of damage? A few people will long remember this eclipse...
