Holy Shiza! That's an expensive camera. I don't know if I saw anything that nice at the roo, but I also didn't notice anyone having trouble getting in normal cameras. I don't wanna say that you won't get hassled....but I doubt it, as long as you have it in a bag when you enter centeroo. You going VIP or GA?
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**
You cant take "professional" cameras in. They classify professional as anything that you can change the lens. They do not allow video cameras of any sort without a media pass, or whatever its called.
If you are just trying to make a documentary to amuse you and your friends, then a smaller camera would probably be fine. Last year I recorded a bunch with the 2006 version of this camera, exilim.casio.com/ (the card one) and it came out pretty decent. It was handy because it fit right in my pocket.

If this is a question that you're asking, then that camera is serious overkill.

Whoa!!! I wouldnt bring that thing anywhere near Roo, just based on issues pertaining to its safety.
You just touched a real barebones rule of bootlegging. There are almost no bands (even taper friendly ones) that will allow you to do video. This becomes more of an issue with the label than the band itself.
I saw a bunch of folks with camcorders last year. Just not a risk I would take. They even stated last year that they would have security walking around specifically looking for people with camcorders.
In the end its your call. I'm just letting you know that you run a massive risk of having it taken away from you.
I was born in the back seat of a Yellow Cab in a hospital loading zone and with the meter still running. I emerged needing a shave and shouted 'Time Square, and step on it!
