Got camera questions? We'll keep it simple....are you:
- Bringing a personal video camera to shoot some personal video to share with friends and family? You'll need to register on arrival, before you shoot anything, with a Personal Use Agreement, and get your personal use camera tag. Read up on this policy AND download a PDF of the agreement to bring it with you at:

- Bringing a video camera to shoot ANYTHING else that is intended to be shown in a public manner (whether for-profit or not!)? You need to register with Media Mecca for approval PRIOR to the Video Camera registration deadline, which is coming up on July 25th.

- Bringing a still camera to shoot any footage that is intended to be shown in a public or commercial context in any manner (again, whether for-profit or not)? Planning any other media-related project that may or may not use images? You need to register with Media Mecca for approval prior to the general Press Registration deadline, which is coming up on August 8.
...and that's also: http://www.burningman.com/press/
- Bringing a still camera (digital, film, disposable, pinhole, whatever) to shoot pictures of your campmate Bob wearing a hot pink latex minidress to show to your buddies back home? Planning to share those images with friends and family through a personal website, Flickr, Tribe, etc? You don't need to register or fill anything out....but you do need to make sure Bob's okay with that before you post them on your personal site. We'll leave that discussion up to you and Bob...but seriously, ask first.
