Recently bought a Nikon d3300 and a polymer sheet for a diy solar lens filter for my lens. Will using this damage my DSLR light sensor?

Are there certain setting I should use to prevent damage? ( like a closed appature)?

Polymer for diy solar eclipse filter?

Recently bought a Nikon d3300 to get back into photography (took classes in hs but never owned my own camera, I know how to work and take care of a DSLR). There's a solar eclipse this weekend and I purchased a polymer sheet to create a filter (link below). I wanted to make sure that I'm not damaging the light sensor inside the camera. Would having the f/ stop or ISO higher/ wider appature cause damage even with using this filter?

I typically do not ask questions because most the time there would be a comprehensive article regarding this, but I was unable to locate this information online. Also, me owning my first dslr /would be my first attempt at taking photos of the sun I would like to persevere the quality of this camera as long as possible. Any feedback/ personal experience would be great and thank you for helping me in advance!

I have a Nikon D5500 (dx body). People are raving about the 85mm 1.8g.( fx & magnifies by 1.5.) Am I better off getting the fx lense 50mm?

70-200 2.8 on aps-c (Nikon)?

Is 70-200 f2.8 too long of a lens for outdoor potraits?

I'm currently looking for a lens for my crop sensor nikon body to get a "dreamy" potrait (lots of blur)

I already own the nikon 35mm 1.8 and sigma 17-50 2.8
both these lens are not giving me the dreamy look i'm looking for.

Is the 70-200 a useful focal range for asp-c sensor? Or is there other lens that could result in this "dreamy" look i'm looking for?

I will primary shoot half body but I wouldn't mind doing head shot and full body

How do i know if DSLR cameras is Good for Video or Photography?

I'm thinking of Switching from Nikon to canon. Reason I was told Canons are cheaper and got better lens. I looked at few cameras like 750d or 800d or 80d(expensive for me if i want to buy all lenses). So two of my friends said to me. Oh 80d its good for videos. So confused. How do i know if DSLR i'm looking for is Video or Photos. If there some Specification that i need to look at? Like video cam got more FPS? Please. Btw I'm still learning.

70-200mm 2.8 on Crop Sensor?

How useful is the 70-200mm 2.8 on a crop sensor? (nikon)

I will be mostly using this lens for potraits (3/4 shot and full body not much headshots) and a little bit of concert photography.

I'm open to other lens suggestion. I'm also interested in the 85mm 1.4 as i heard it is a better portrait lens (3/4 and full body shot)
