I took a picture of the sun today, and I was thinking about how the sun can damage your eye, I was wondering if the camera or lens could get damaged by this, or get burn in like some screens do?
Answer
Yes, it can. You should generally try to avoid direct pictures of the sun, especially for any extended period of time. It can (and will) damage the sensor. I shouldn't damage the lens however.
Additionally, you should avoid looking through the viewfinder at the sun as well.
In fact, check this question on somebody who had that problem!
