Will my X-T2 sensor get damaged behind a solar filter?

I am thinking of shooting a time lapse of the eclipse with my X-T2 and 16mm …what I am worried about is even though I will have a solar filter on the lens what is the potential of damaging the sensor?


 


On A DSLR the only time the sensor would be exposed is during a shot but as we all know the sensor on the X-T2 would be exposed the entire time I was shooting a time lapse which in this case will be for about 2 hours.


 


I might just shoot it with my Canon 5D Mark III and the 16-35mm to be safe.


 


Any thoughts on the subject?
