Leaf burn or fungus?

Please help. I noticed this morning a sudden decline in leaf health on my bonsai. Orange discoloration that seems to start at the leaf margins and eventually kills the whole leaf. We have been getting some intense heat and low humidity lately, so I am hoping just leaf scorch, but want to ensure it isn't something worse

The more I research, the more I am thinking leaf scorch. I may just go ahead and relocate all of my trees out of full sun. Does anyone think that I should discontinue overhead watering in case it is fungus?

From my internet research, it's leaf scorch or too much fertilizer.

I had some leaves looking similar last month so I did similar research. I still don't know what the problem with mine was, but I'm leaning towards leaf scorching because my fertilizer is rather weak.

After moving the trees (babies) into a less sunny spot, they started coming back.
