Are cameras allowed in?

U2 Tour FAQ - U2tours.com
Yes. Despite the fact that the tickets and the venues will say "No Cameras" allowed, U2 has been able to override the policy at each venue. You are allowed to bring in a camera, as long as it's not a pro-level device, i.e. -- no detachable lenses, etc.

What about those disposable cameras?

Wedding Photography FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANS...
The single-use cameras with built-in flash (required, since most receptions are indoors), are good for the 5-7 foot range. They work best for guests taking snapshots of other guests. In my experience at weddings where these cameras were distributed, the wedding couple later reported to me that one or two always get inadvertently carried off by guests, and of those remaining, about 40-50% of the shots are printable (others are underexposed or blurred).

Why don't consumer DV cameras have "real" lenses with focus marks?

The DV, DVCAM, & DVCPRO Formats -- tech details, FAQ, an...
Real" lenses use helical grooves to rack focus; the resistance you feel when you focus such a lens is the natural friction of the rotating barrels sliding through the lightly-greased grooves. That smooth friction, alas, plays havoc with autofocus systems which all consumer cameras must have, so goes the conventional wisdom; strong and battery-draining motors are needed to spin such barrels, and they can't obtain the fast focus response that's so useful in optimizing autofocus algorithms.

Can you use old Canon manual-focus lenses with EOS cameras?

Canon EOS Beginners' FAQ III - Lenses
Not really. In the years before introducing EOS autofocus cameras, Canon sold many manual-focus lenses for their SLR cameras. The majority of these lenses are of the FD type. Sadly, FD lenses cannot be used with EOS cameras. The lens mounts are of incompatible sizes and types. This is in contrast to Nikon - most Nikon manual-focus F-series lenses can be used with most Nikon autofocus cameras. Now it is possible to use adapter rings to attach FD lenses to EOS cameras.

How many cameras do I get?

Music Box Productions
All of our ceremonies are inclusive of two-camera ceremony coverage. When asking this question, also be sure to find out if both of the cameras are manned, or is just one manned and one set up on a tripod to capture the “back shot”. A true movie-like wedding video requires zooming in and out and movement right and left at critical moments to add depth and that overall movie-like feel to your video.

This really depends on your application and budget. What I do is to have the cameras recording 24x7. When the system detects motion, it alerts me via e-mail and my mobile phone. I can then connect to my cameras from anywhere in the world to have a quick look to see whats happening. Theres plenty of other applications for things like a nursery, pubs, clubs, resturants - well anything you want to watch. In theory it could but I wouldn't advise it.

EPGFA FAQ's
Traditional film and digital formats may be used to take pictures for an application. There are considerations with either option. Although disposable cameras are convenient, the lack of an autofocus causes some close-up pictures to be blurry. Additionally, digital cameras with low resolution often produce close-up pictures of poor quality. As a rule of thumb, film cameras should have an autofocus and digital cameras should be 3 mega pixel or greater.
