Is photography allowed inside the casinos?

i got my first vegas trip coming up and was wondering if your allowed to take pictures of the casino and sportsbook? thanks

There used to be a strict policy against it but they have had to lighten up some with all the cell phone cameras out there. You can't take a ton at once but a couple here and there shouldn't cause any problems.

My GF is addicted to taking pictures and she asked a couple of the security guards if she could. They said it was alright as long as she didn't photograph any of the gaming. So we have tons of pictures of Coyote Ugly, playing in ESPN zone, walking through the casinos, virtually every corner of the Bellagio, Venetian, Caesars, and Wynn. Especially the lobbies.

You can't even talk on a cell phone in the Sportbook much less take a picture. Saying that my GF took a picture maybe 5 feet from the entrance of the book at Caesars because she like Celine  Dion.

 

exactly take em when no security around, they will get to you in 2 minutes or so, just feign ignorance and they will tell you not to do it anymore, They wont touch your camera or anything, so just figure out what you want to shooot, pick an oppurtune time and fire away.

i took pics inside Imperial Palace when the dealers-dressed-as-entertainers were performing.

i was surprised it was allowed, the dealers were even posing for the pics.
