^ I would hope that the guards were to prohibit point-and-shoot camera users too.

But upon reading the thread there were several experiences cited wherein guards only calls the attention of the dslr users and not the small camera users who was taking pictures too.

And the funny thing is the common excuse that the guards give is DSLR's being big and hi-tech wherein digicams being small and low-tech.

WTH.

Anyways, i'm thinking if I should buy the Panasonic lumix LX3 since it's shots were somewhat similar to slr's and it's definitely smaller. Im not looking for brand new units though, used units will be fine with me.
