Important:
ALL video is prohibited inside the venue. Even if your digital camera is accepted and has
minimal video requirements, you ARE NOT allowed to take video with it. Digital
cameras are allowed for still photography ONLY. Suspending your camera above your
head for more than 30 seconds will trigger security to check your camera for video.
You’ve been warned. If you don’t want to be hassled, don’t keep your camera suspended
in the air with LCD screen shining for everyone in the venue to see.
Reality:
Remember, the documented actions of bootleggers at ProgPower USA have necessitated
a ban on certain digital recording devices. The best solution to stop bootlegging is to
simply ban all cameras from the venue. Because many patrons have objected to that
extreme, a compromise has been made to continue to allow photography with all film and
certain digital cameras.
You are not being banned from taking photos. You just need to take them with any of the
hundreds of film cameras that have been made available over the years. Furthermore,
there are OVER 100 models of digital cameras that will be allowed in the venue.
Allowed:
ALL film cameras are allowed (disposable, compact, SLR, etc.,).
ALL digital single lens reflex cameras (Digital SLRs or DSLR) are allowed. DSLR
cameras do not have the lens mounted permanently to the body and allow for the
interchange of several lenses on the same body.
Use of flash on film cameras or approved digital cameras is allowed.
Banned Cameras:
(1) 640 px x 480 px* : >30 sec or time only limited by amount of memory available
(2) 320 px x 240 px* : >30 sec or time only limited by amount of memory available
(3) Unlimited video at any resolution
(4) Streaming video capabilities*
*Any frame rate. Any one criteria bans camera. This list subject to change.
If you believe your camera is listed below and does not meet any one of the three criteria
above (and thus should be allowed), it is up to you to provide me with a link to the
camera manufacturer’s website for that specific camera to prove that NONE of the three
criteria are met. Inquiries not providing a link to manufacturer’s specifications will be
rejected. I will not research this information for you further than I already have.
