"I'm gonna trust this random that confirms my worldview over another random without asking anyone's qualifications" 🤡
You'd have to sit there for literally over a minute at close range just shining the laser directly into the sensor otherwise you'll just leave spots on it.

TLDW: You're unlikely to kill a camera with a laser unless you have a 3W laser, a tripod, and several minutes. It's not the "flash a laser into the lens to kill it" like people keep making it out to be.
P.s. I've been a live music photographer off and on for fifteen years, I've shot around lasers plenty of times. Don't be surprised when Flock adds a laser filter to their lenses.

Fuck of a lot smarter than trusting a random with 0 qualifications mentioned.
Not watching shit since you think I'm not discussing using a more than 3w laser. Probably think I meant a red normal one, huh?
Having burned out my own camera equipment testing this shit myself I know what I'm talking about buddy.
