Up until about two minutes ago, I was sold on using my cell phone as my primary Roo camera. It is a pretty decent camera (8MP) and captures AMAZING audio on videos. However, I don't know if I feel confident in the battery life if I'm using it as a camera+camcorder, as well as a phone!
So I think I might be in the market for an impulse camera upgrade. What kind of cameras are y'all bringing? I know there's a "camera questions" thread, but I feel that is more for what cameras are allowed -- this is more for what cameras will thrive in the Roo atmosphere!
I'm looking for something that captures above average to excellent images in most settings, but I'm really interested in a camera that can capture HD video -- preferably with some decent sound!

I am gonna try and pick up one of these. I am no photog expert and this one seems pretty easy to use. It got great reviews for low light shots which should help out for those night shows. I was looking for a compact cam with a decent zoom and this seems like a good option.

The best camera advice is at www.kenrockwell.com. Recommended Cameras is first link at the top of the page.
He says the best is S90, but I don't think it does hi-def video. I would recommend the one below it , Canon SD 980 IS. the WIDE ANGLE Lens really makes a difference.
I go back and forth about night shots, cell phones suck at them. Not that a flash is all that important. Just a better CCD and and some options for shutter and aperture.

what do they not permit you to have? arent there limitations for the quality of the camera? I was going to buy a Nikon D90 today. I won't have any problems, will I?

YOu'll be fine getting your d90 in. Just sling over your shoulder. They never noticed mine last year. Although it's a pita to carry it around all day. Ive decided against dringing my dslr into centeroo this year.
