Camera Policy

 

Small, non-professional, single frame "point and shoot" cameras are allowed into the venue. However, use of "professional cameras" is prohibited at YIM events unless the user has appropriate media credentials and prior written approval from Youth In Music. Any camera with a detachable lens or lens that extends to four or more inches is considered a "professional camera" and thus prohibited.
