taking cameras into the madejski stadium

[Stuka]

This guy got a ban for taking pictures at Royals games:

^^^ Which shows that they're certainly targetting cameras that are in no way a pro standard.

I've been thinking about a little project for the end of the season - might write to the club and ask for permission to bring in a camera.

With cameras built into most mobile phones now this does seem like a battle they can't win. So why bother trying to restrict them.

They don't - they recognise that, and target "professional-standard" equipment.

Which my poxy fuji apparently fitted into a couple of years ago...

Another club have stopped me taking my camera in, but I can't remember who it is now. Most really don't seem to care.

I know that QPR are strict. Outside their ground, they specifically say no cameras and their match day programme has a section which says fans are not allowed to take cameras of any kind into the stadium. A friend of mine who supports QPR, and who used to have a season ticket there, says they are very strict about their rules.
