@Mattwazowski Hello,

Tapo C310 is designed for outdoor environment (operating temperature is -20°C~45°C (-4°F~113°F)) and uses very durable material, so camera could work under direct sunlight.

If the camera points to a building or object , not point to always the sun, the common environment conditions should not cause any damage on the len of camera.
