I'm a video and still camera user to. I don't think it can be stopped either. There will always be some idiot that will try and film up a girls dress and stuff it up for the rest of us.:rolleyes:

Try recording HAF Mirages and F-16's (or anything for that matter) without permission (Even from outside the base).... it lands you a nice accusation of spying for Turkey, and a nice period in the Greek Justice System lol, they do a flypast over Athens... thats fine, but you go to a base and photo them practicing for the flypast you get in trouble... thankfully the guys at Tanagra, Larissa, Araxos and Souda know me...

i think all this boils down to is that thing.... common sense, don't stuff it up for those of us that love our photography, and don't just (and excuse me here) F*** around with it... i regularly take photos of my local church to test my camera settings... people here seem to be smart and stay out of shot for a few moments, till the kids realise whats going on then start ruining it for everyone...
