Solar filter for your phone’s camera

What it is and what it’s for

Without a filter, your phone’s camera sees the Sun as a white blob. With the filter in front you can see its disc and the Moon gradually covering it.

It is a filter for the camera lens, not eye protection: it doesn’t carry the eclipse-glasses certificate because it is not for looking through.

How to use it

1. Check it before each use: if it is damaged, torn, holed or separated from its frame, throw it away.
2. Hold it in front of the camera lens, between the Sun and the camera, with the marked side facing the Sun.
3. Take the photo looking at the screen, never at the Sun. To look at the Sun, keep your eclipse glasses on.
4. Don’t use it with cameras that have an optical viewfinder (DSLRs): the Sun’s light would reach your eye through the viewfinder.
