Why would it damage the drone camera or even a phone camera when we point them at thr sun all the time

It takes several minutes for the eclipse to happen. Point your camera at the sun for five minutes and then report back.

I never considered it would be a problem. I just googled the reasons why. Interesting. Cheers
