Update: Digital camera's can be damaged by pointing directly at the sun. The CCD or CMOS sensor is suseptible to burn in the same as a Plasma TV and this will render the camera useless...it says so in the manual that came with my digital SLR camera.(Canon). Don't risk it.
Whenever taking a photo try to put the sun directly behind you so that it is lighting up the target. Also your camera may have a setting that will change the exposure time for the picture, limit the exposure time to remove excess light.
The first camera ever invented was the one that made the first photograph ever produced. That was done by a French gentleman named Niepce, who had a device called a Camera Obscura. A Camera Obscura was a box with a hole in one end, a mirror set at a 45-degree angle, and a piece of glass to lay a tracing paper on. In use, you aimed it at what you wanted a picture of, put the tracing paper on the glass, and drew the picture with a pencil.Niepce practiced an art called Heliography. You got a piece of tinplate steel, coated it with asphalt, laid things on the asphalt and stuck it out in the sun for many hours to let light harden the coating. Then you washed the plate to remove the unexposed asphalt and you had a picture. (Reprints were out of the question.) Niepce decided to see what would happen if he put a heliograph plate in his camera obscure and left it there all day. What happened is he got a picture - the camera obscura put enough light on the plate to harden it.
A pinhole camera is a simple device that can be used to project an image of the sun without the need for lenses. It consists of a dark box or tube with a tiny hole (the pinhole) on one end and a surface (like photographic paper or a screen) on the opposite end to capture the image. When sunlight passes through the pinhole, it creates an inverted image of the sun on the surface inside the camera. This method is safe for observing the sun, as it prevents direct eye exposure to harmful rays.
We should really call it a camera obscura - literally a dark room - so I suppose the opposite should be a light room. Conservatory or sun lounge perhaps?
You can use Magnesium as a camera flashbulb because it is a metal and when ignited lights up like the sun. do not look directly at it or you will be seeing spots for hours
Yes, taking a picture of the sun can potentially damage a camera if the camera is pointed directly at the sun for an extended period of time. The intense light and heat from the sun can harm the camera's sensor and other components. It is recommended to use a solar filter or special equipment when photographing the sun to protect the camera.

Sure, but don't open the shutter or you'll ruin it.
It is not safe to take a picture of the sun directly with a camera or phone as it can damage the equipment and your eyes. It is recommended to use special filters or equipment designed for solar photography to capture images of the sun safely.
When taking pictures of the sun, it is important to use a solar filter to protect the camera and prevent damage to the lens. Additionally, never look directly at the sun through the camera's viewfinder or with the naked eye to avoid eye damage. Position yourself in a shaded area or use a sunshade to prevent overheating of the camera.
Yes this would be perfectly safe and should not damage your eyes. Staring through a camera into the sun could still however prove harmful.
Gone are the days of having to turn your film into a lab and waiting several days to see how your pictures turned out. With digital cameras, you have instant gratification. One tip to remember when taking a picture is to be aware of the light around you. If you are inside, make sure there is enough light. Even with your camera's flash, the amount of light in the room will make a difference. If you are outside, take note of the direction of the sun so it doesn't cast a shadow on your picture.

It's certainly possible - just make sure you don't look at the sun yourself.

When taking pictures with a digital camera it is important to remember a few basic rules of successful photo construction. Be sure that a light source, primarily the Sun, is located somewhere behind the actual camera, use alignment with some horizon point for good level perspective, use the rule of thirds dividing photographic area into vertical and horizontal thirds, place subjects in the grid squares created for a successful picture. Last, remember to always keep a keen eye looking for unique or unusual perspectives, as long as the basic rules are followed it is acceptable t take pictures from unusual or unseen vantage points to give the picture more interest.
A lens flair occurs in photography when unwanted light shines into the camera and shows up in a picture. This occurs often when shooting pictures with the sun in the background.
