Question

The Accademia di Belle Arti Firenze where the David is held,do they gave the ok for non-flash or flash camera?

Answer 1

There are absolutely no pictures alowed by the public of The David or anywhere in the museum.

Answer 2

They have a no camera rule - photography isn't allowed at all. That being said, every time I have been there I have witnessed people taking pictures - sometimes the guards see them and shout out "no photo!" and sometimes they don't. The official website is here http://www.firenzemusei.it/00_english/ac... but it does not mention the photo policy anywhere I can see.

Answer 3

No, they don't allow photography of any kind.  There are posters and postcards available in their giftshop, though.

Answer 4

They don't want you taking pictures because they prefer to overcharge you for post cards.  That being said, i recommend turning OFF your flash (there's enough light anyway) and taking a picture on the quick.  

Mine turned out great, and if you look in the bottom corner you can see the shocked look of the museum curator just realizing i was taking a photo and turning to shout at me.  Classic!!!

Answer 5

This will all depend on the "guards" who are watching the crowd or drinking espresso and talking on the cellphone...etc.
