No one is taking into account the experience of other museum goers. You guys commenting here on this blog may be semi pros with your cameras but the majority of people out there are most decidedly not. I have visited this museum. There is a lot of glass, plex, monitors and projection screens. Having flashes go off all around me while I’m trying to view this stuff would annoy me greatly. As the lighting is a major component of these exhibits, a place like this is best experienced through the eye, not the lens

Count among the photography neanderthals the Seattle Art Museum and the Vancouver (B.C.) Art Gallery. The Vancouver Art Gallery even expects you to check your camera at the coat check. I left both places and they lost the revenue. Who made them the copyright police?

That’s stupid. Can’t imagine there’s anything in there that hasn’t been seen a million times already. And, as someone else pointed out, in today’s Internet age, they’re actually missing out on the ability to generate publicity and awareness. Then again, since they’ve done a LOUSY job of that themselves, I guess it’s clear they don’t CARE about publicity and awareness.

I have enjoyed photography as a hobby for 50+years. I own a Canon 20D and am a Scott Kelby fan. He is a great photoshop expert, yet emphasizes the importance of getting the best possible shot when taking the picture, to make your time in photoshop more enjoyable.The information here is incredible…Thanks a lot…

As a hugh Disney fan, I too am saddened by the decision to not allow photos to be taken at the Disney Family Museum. I had talked with my wife and daughter about making the trip just to see the artifacts of the man we have come to love so much. But it would be like going to see Grandpa, and not being able to take that much cherished family photo. No thanks, Disney Family Museum, for now I’ll stay home.
