Namely, that they block out everything except for light sources, and even then, only if they’re sufficiently bright or undiffused.
This photo, taken with the eclipse foil directly on my iPhone camera lens, is a slightly less blurry version of what I saw with just my eyes. (Note: the room lights were also on, but they were too diffuse to register.)
Why buy them when you can DIY it?
