Question:

Can the Photon camera be pointed at the sun?

Answer:

We do not recommend intentionally viewing the sun, but looking at the sun will not permanently damage the sensor. It will, however, take some time for the camera to recover. The amount of time needed for recovery will depend on how long the camera was exposed to the sun. The longer the exposure, the longer the recovery time needed.
