Answer 1

If the rules upon entry is "no cameras allowed" that usually means you aren't supposed to use it. I don't think it matters as long as you don't take it out. They will confiscate it if they're really strict. Their reason is that the cameras may distract the performers and may make them feel nervous so that they're not performing to their best ability. If you really take your camera everywhere then just keep it in your bag.

Last concert I went to, I took my camera because I wasn't sure if they'd be allowed or not. There was nothing on the ticket or on ticketmaster about cameras. They searched our bags before we entered and said I wouldn't be allowed to take the camera in. Me and my friends were dropped off at the place by her dad since my car was broke down after dropping us off he left. So I couldn't take it to my car. The security woman said I would not be allowed to go in there with it. It was a $300 camera, I wasn't about to give it to her. I wound up having to just give her the batteries.

While we were in there though we saw tons of people with their camera phones, holding them up, taking pics, recording...LOL, I hate phones but they inspired me to get one.

You probably can hide it in your purse going in. But if they said nocamera, they mean it. If they catch you, they'll take it away.
