I have emailed the contacts to see if DSLR cameras will be permitted. I'll report back here once I have a response.

Cheers,
Warwick

Looks good Wocka, great work.
Look forward to seeing their response.
I'm not sure at this stage if I can go, but if I'm not working I will be there.

Geoff, Geoff, Geoff - if you really want to get into Kirribilli House why don’t you stand for the ICU party (International Camera Union) and actually live there :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok the replay about camera's is as follows:

Dear Mr Ferguson,
you may take photographs with tripod in the grounds of the houses, however
to enter the houses your tripod will need to be left at the cloaking tent
(at your own risk, you will be given ticket )

You should be able to carry your camera into the houses in it's own case -
there is strictly no photography allowed in the houses and all bags taken in
are at the discretion of the Official security on site.


If anyone would like a copy of this email ( just in case you want to prove to security at the gate ), just PM me with your email addy and I'll forward it through.

Cheers,
Warwick
