Just wanted to share with you a good trick I found this week when I couldnt see my bosch green laser outside due to the sunlight , I used my iPhone I switched the front camera on and placed my phone with its back against the wall and tilted the screen to face towards the laser and when you get the camera lens in line with the laser it shows up on the screen so you know the laser is inline with the camera lens at the top and it’s very accurate as when you get the green laser showing very bright on the screen it’s dead centre on the camera ! I measured my camera lens down from the top of my case and it’s 14mm so now I mark along the top of the iPhone case and then mark a fresh line 14mm below and it’s spot on .

You can destroy a camera sensor by aiming a laser at it…just an FYI…

To be fair it wouldn’t be done that often it’s just to get you out of a problem every now and then

Very cool trick is your in a bind.
Sound like a good idea to a problem I regularly have. Will try this
Red laser glasses help.
So does using a white paper plate.
If it’s anywhere near dusk, that’s the best time.

I have the green glasses but I meant this trick is for when you just can’t see it at all in sun light at a distance
