New guy here...with a question.

Are there any camera restrictions at an event like this? I mean just for general photography of displays at vendors tables and such (not talking about sticking my camera in the nose of a celebrity guest).

I've never been to one of these events before and I'd like to put together some photos to capture the spirit of the event.

Just one still camera...not hauling lights or microphones :).

Welcome!

I always take tons of pictures at the Cons so feel free to bring your camera.

It certainly would be nice to ask peoples permission before you take shot of them, but for the most part its wide open.

Guys(and Gals) like the Mandalorian Mercs come out specifically to interact and have pictures taken with fans.

Also watch for Benzo, Haggis and myself at the Iacon North section of the Con and say hi if you get a chance!
