A netizen attended a concert and used a digital camera to record the performance. A green laser beam from the stage happened to shoot directly into the lens, instantly blinding the camera and turning the screen black. Experts explain that the power of green lasers is so high that they can even ignite matches. When such light directly enters the camera, the photosensitive coupling components inside can easily be damaged.
As the singer performed energetically, the laser lights grew increasingly intense with the music. A fan quickly raised their camera to capture the moment, but a sudden flash of green laser light from the stage struck the lens, splitting the screen—left side turning red while the right side continued recording, though the image darkened until the lens completely failed.
Another netizen had a similarly unfortunate experience. Their lens was hit by the green laser, resulting in blurry photos with a white line running through the middle. A reporter tested with a laser pointer, demonstrating that the high-power green laser not only produced a bright dot but also emitted a visible beam. When the green light entered the camera, the electronic photosensitive coupling components were easily burned out.
To test the power, a green laser pointer with just 200 microwatts was aimed at a matchstick, which caught fire in less than three seconds. The green lasers used on stage are even more powerful, so when they hit a camera lens directly, the result is instant destruction. Although the chances are low, it’s best to avoid pointing your camera directly at laser lights while enjoying the visual effects—unless you want to end up like these unlucky camera owners, left with nothing but regret.
