I've been to two shows on this tour so far and I haven't seen anyone with a DSLR. Cellphone cameras galore. Point and shoots, maybe... but I would be cautious if it were me, especially if sitting near an aisle where the security guys can get to you easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pound of Obscure Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I got told to stop videoing with my Iphone once. Pictures they seemed to ignore. Obvious video, they stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shail Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The newer smart phones have nice video and pix. Got the new iPhone 5 and it takes nice vids ans pix. Security telling people to stop taking vids is futile. Lots of people have smart phones. It's like telling people to stop breathing. Seen some people with the zoom cameras. They are a bit bulky to get through in a tap down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney_rebel Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 usually up to the discretion of the venue, then the idiot security guards. I wouldn't chance it. On our venue, a certain lens length is allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMXED Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Check your ticket. They usually post something on it regarding what you can't bring in. But I seriously doubt DSLRs are allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcsbass Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 i emailed jiffy lube live in DC and asked them. they told me to contact Rush's press manager. i emailed her and the response i got was that you can only bring a DSLR if you get a press credential. i found this site which has some more info on credentials. http://www.nppa.org/professional_developme...redentials.html. i suppose you could represent yourself as a freelancer and see how far that gets you. although i do know from a photography class i took a few years ago that press credentials are not "all access" passes. if you've got lawn seats and want close-up pics, you'd best get a long lens.
