Dean,
This was starkly visible after totality when the cameras monitoring the sun suddenly switched their iris setting to be ready fkr sunshine again. The bright corona changed to a hardly visible sliver of light.
An audio parallel: imagine hearing music that gets quieter... and your ears become more sensitive!
They should have used better filters on the cameras, if they used them at all.
The audio effect can be caused by using compressor/limiters.
