Will be shooting the camera any way hurt Sun Peaks - e.g. to burn the sensor?

It depends on how you shoot the Sun.   You're focusing a lot of energy in the body of the camera, and this can generate a lot of heat.  I have a friend who observed with a safe solar filter attached to its scope... but another Member (unbnownst him) not clipped the front cover from the dust of its solar 'finder' scope.  When he did the scope at the Sun, he immedaitely broke the sons of the cross in the finder and in just a few seconds he burned a clean hole in the rear Cap (imagine if your eyeball is trying to address the issue.)

I put a solar filter on my 300mm f/2.8 to shoot the partial eclipse in last October.

The filter was made by Thousand Oaks Optical.  These filters are really intended for use in the put telescopes can be put on the camera lenses.  For a filter to be safe for the human eye, it must dismiss 99,996% of the Sun's energy.  These filters actually block 99.999%.  They come in glass, a film 'RG' and ' Noir '.  Film noir is recommended for use with camera lenses, because the glass and the RG film resemble an opaque mirror and the 'mirror' like finish can cause undesirable reflections in the lens of the camera.  The 'black' movie will eliminate (or certainly reduce) all reflection.

There are a number of companies that manufacture solar filters - for the most part, you will find the latter at companies that sell telescopes (e.g., Oceanside Photo & Telescope (OPTcorp.com) for example.

  • Any way to stop the shuffle mode in iTunes from the iPhone 5?

    Any way to stop the shuffle mode in iTunes from the iPhone 5?

    If you listen to a single artist, or whatever song you can listen, bring this song to full screen, so you can see all the controls. At the bottom of the page, to the left side, you will see two icons that contain arrows. The first has the crossed arrows, and the second shows their type of verse in a circle. If you press them, then get highlighted, which means they are on. Shuffle is the first left, and then repeat is the second. Tap it to make sure it is off (not highlight).

    Hi Jer9009,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

    To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

    A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.

  • I would like to know if there is any way I can remove the 32-bit and keep the 64-bit without harming my computer

    I ran windows 7 installation on my computer using DVD who had 32 and 64-bit data and for that I currently have 32-bit and 64-bit installed in my computer. So I would like to know if there is any way I can remove the 32 bit and keep the 64 bits without harming my computer or stored data because now both bits is eating space on my C drive/partition!

    OT:

    Windows

    Why do you think you have "32-bit and 64-bit" versions of Windows 7 installed?

    If you installed the 64-bit version (which you will need if your computer has more than 4 GB of RAM and you want to use all of this RAM), you can see a few references to 32-bit architecture.  The 64 bit version of Windows needs these files in order to run software that is designed for 32-bit architecture.

    Perhaps the most obvious instance is the presence of the following two directories:

    C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (x 86).  It is normal for both of these directories present in a 64-bit system.

    Maybe this will help--> 32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions

  • The Sound Recorder with W7 now seems much more rudimentary than the old version, and I can't find any way to insert messages into My Documents.

    My O.S. is W.7. 32-bit.

    Before, I recently upgraded to XP and using MS Word 2007, I have a (short) Sound Clip of pre-registration<60 secs. )="" and="" then="" insert="" it="" into="" my="">

    A small icon that looks like a speaker appeared on the Document and that the beneficiary would have left click on it to hear the recording. The Sound Recorder with W7 now seems much more rudimentary than the old version, and I can't find any way to insert messages into My Documents.

    Is this even possible or has Microsoft taken a step backward here?

    I'd appreciate some help here. Thanks in advance. Mech-Tech.

    Original title: Sound Recorder

    If I've understood your problem, try this. Create a shortcut to "soundrecorder /file outputfilename.wav" (without the quotes).

    Then start soundrecorder via this shortcut and start and stop the recording, it will save so (hopefully) as a wav as before.

    I think the problem is, W7 soundrecorder, by default, saves to wma.

    If not, try a 3rd free part program such as Audacity (which seems like overkill, but should do the job).

    I hope this will help.

    Hey Pratik,

    As long as registration has been shared (manually via the share record option that has the host or through the e-mail received by participants) and then the link for registration will be still valid after the user is disabled.

    There is no other way to access this disk once the account is disabled, also to reactivate it, log and generate the share link for records associated with the account.

  • Any way to go back to the old mail conversation view?

    Just upgraded my phone to iOS 10, and new mail conversation view is not usable. This might work for personal emails, but for work when I have maybe 10 to 20 emails in a single conversation, it's unmanageable to have to scroll all the way. 1 on 20 may have an attachment you are looking for. I'm very likely going to have to use Microsoft Outlook instead.

    Someone at - he found a way to restore the 9 mail iOS conversation view?

  • Is there any way I can remove to concede Mozilla non exclusive, free of charge, worldwide license to use the content that I can download using Sync?

    I started to download Mozilla Sync to my computer, but stopped after reading an article in the terms of use. He States, "5. Your content in our Services: you can download content as part of the functionality of the Services. By downloading the content, you grant us hereby an exclusive, royalty-free license throughout the world to use your content in the context of the provision of Services. "Take you represent and warrant that your content will not infringe the rights of any third party and that it will comply with any content directive introduced by Mozilla ', so I stopped the download until I could learn more.
    I also think that your privacy under the heading synchronization policy says that Mozilla will strive to keep my content only as needed. If this is the case then by two distinct statements in your terms and conditions Privacy policy, you may deem it "necessary" to keep all my content that you want to use.
    My question is this, is it possible to deny the exclusive, royalty-free license throughout the world to use my content that I can download using your service of the Mozilla? "I will not be forced to allow anyone this type of license to use my art or writing ' ad arbitrium".

    IIRC, section 5 is basically guaranteeing that you are the real owner of the content that is uploaded to Sync, and that Mozilla is not going to get justice for copyright infringement, the content that you download is safe, and the terms are for a "license to use your content in the framework of the provision of Services' not even Mozilla can access.

  • I lost my WiFi signal after having placed a time Capsule in the system. Now the Airport Extreme will not recognize the system. Any ideas?

    Any ideas on why my Airport Extreme will not recognize the system after the integration of the time Capsule in my system? Continues to have a flashing yellow light after trying all suggestions of technicians from the Apple Store and Internet provider.

    Since we don't know all what has been tried, we will have to start from the beginning if you don't mind.

    What exact models are your AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule? What is the brand and model of your modem Internet? I'll assume that Extreme is your "main" router and is directly connected to the modem by Ethernet... correct?

    Do you have the Time Capsule (TC) connected to the extreme, by wire or wireless? What is your goal for the TC? In other words, will not be used to extend the reach of the extreme wireless?

I don't think that this computer can handle the upgrade to yosemit and photos. I'm operating a white macbook memory 1.5 GB with osX 10.7.5. IPhoto has apparently been abandoned for the photo.
