The light (sunlight, UV lamp and lamp light) passing through a lens of the camera, it burn? If so, can u tell me which ones burn the lens of the camera?
Any source of heat or intense light can harm an SLR or DSLR. The curtain is made of fabric and the lens is ... and a lens, magnifying properties of the lens can focus light and drill a hole in the curtain. But this is only possible if the goal is left pointing to the light for at least several minutes, depending on the target.
The bigger the lens, more openness, the faster this can happen.
If you want to take pictures of the sun or a bright light, buy a neutral density filter which allows you to do so safely.
The only one who would have a slight risk is the sun. For a compact camera, it is OK to take pictures with the sun in it, but do not look at the sun, and do not let the camera pointing toward the sun, or even sitting in the sun for an extended period.
For a reflex, maybe there is more risk because of the shutter so hot inside the camera, but I'm not sure. But you will not be detrimental to the goal, you will hurt things behind the lens as you focus on the sun, like a magnifying glass.
But to the point and shoot camera style, no worries.
manual for my camera does not report it to direct sunlight. I do not know if the sun burns the lens or the shutter or the sensor, but it's probably bad news for everyone.
