SignUp Now!Just checked in to Isle of Palms. We come down every year, but picked this week because of the eclipse. Better not be cloudy.
If you're going to kill the camera on your phone, do the front-facing one.Since it's been impossible to get eclipse glasses locally, I'm trying to figure out the best way to get a peek at it. As of now, I'm thinking I'll just turn on my phone camera, point it up, and look at the screen. Can't be any worse that viewing it through glasses that basically take away your vision, right?
Good thing the rest of us stayed here in the Triangle. Let's all laugh at aiw.Triangle area looks mostly clear at the crucial hour, no more than 10% cloud cover or so.
Check out windy.com if you don't know about it for detailed, graphics-oriented weather forecasting. You can slide the timer to 14:00 tomorrow, and view the cloud cover.
The phone won't break, but you'll probably burn out the camera sensor.
Knowledge of DSLR cameras. If Apple says it's ok, then I'm sure it's ok.The phone won't break, but you'll probably burn out the camera sensor.
What are you basing this on?
Apple says it's fine, which I assume they wouldn't do if there was any significant chance it would open them up to liability.
