Amex - Can we take DSLR cameras in?

[Nottseagull]

Interesting - I was planning on taking mine with a 55/300 lens, never occurred to me it might not be possible. If they don't allow me in I'm hardly going to leave it anywhere. Do they check all bags?

You could always disguise it in some way

What about these compact palm-sized memory card video recorders? If anyone can overcome the usual DT's effect, we could have some lovely YouTube footage

There were at least two people behind me in the north who seemed to video the whole game on Saturday

Didn't someone already ask about headphones with microphone attachment on ATC and was told they're a definite no no ?

Whatever happened to the old days of just going to watch the match? Is it just me or do all these cameras drive anyone else mad?

Not intended as a regular event, but on my very first visit would be nice to get a few pic's - can't see how that would bother anyone

Things could get out of hand......

would love to take my dslr in there. No way would i want it confiscated for the match though if i wasn't allowed in with it.

I think they may have turned a blind eye for the previous 2 games but it may be different this weekend now the league games are starting. I could be sitting there with my 400mm lens and be knocking out shots to the media before the poor official photographer gets a chance too.

Pitch level pass would be damn sweet for a match though. to be able to snap away.

I took my DSLR on Saturday and got in without any problem (although I only have a shit lense)

I'm sure that Martin Perry mentioned some time ago that camera's would be allowed in for the first league game.

I bring something like this to every football match I go to:

Am I okay ?
