Wear a baseball cap pulled down over the front. Wear wrap around dark glasses and walk with your head down. It doesn't matter how well they were trained or how exotic their camera equipment is...they will not be able to get your ID pic.

They are everywhere....and they are particulary interested in D70 owners. I find the best way to shake them is to walk real fast throught the CBD...and every now and then, suddenly turn around and stare real hard. They are the guys in dark suits with jackets that are to big for them. (Kevlar vests underneath). I beleive they have a new piece of kit that can wipe your Sandisc memory card clean fro 300m meters. So backup often.

I am reminded of a favourite line from the seminal movie - Woodstock.

Most of my problems stem from acetic acid/stop bath in too many hours in old fashioned darkrooms. The D70 is my cure...but working very slowly.
