It’s a good question. But my answer is not really. I have looked this up and it’s for sure a risk, but I generally only have it pointed that way a few seconds at a time. I have done it for years with many cameras with no damage.

I am careful to make these brief but I acknowledge it could cause damage

Mirrorless cameras are very different from DSLRs in the way that the sensor is always exposed to light, whereas DSLRs have a mirror in front that flips up for only a split second while the light hits the sensor.
