In my opinion, however, as long as you don't keep the sun baking the camera for an extended period of time this should not be a problem at all. Just snap a pic and move the camera. 10-20 seconds of the sun in frame is probably no big deal. Just don't leave the camera in the exact same position for longer than a minute.Eric Teskehttp://www.ericteske.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190121957646296756.post-66931841535424876572015-02-12T07:17:22.045-05:002015-02-12T07:17:22.045-05:00hi Eric
