: I believe that many people object to mobile phone cameras due to thier intrusive nature. No would one think a bringing a large Nikon to a sauna and taking photos since it is too obvious. The management would immeditaly remove the individual.
: On the other hand mobile cameras have beome part of our society and people use them everywhere. In Sept 2003 the sauna complex in Koln Germany, Aqualand, had an incident in which photos taken with mobile cameras of the guests at an FKK night (a night where there is nude swimming in the main pool area)showed up on the internet embarassing many guests. They now ban all mobile photos. They must be place in your locker and can't be used within any of the areas.
: Mobile phone cameras have made spying too easy. It was always possible to get a camera disguised as a book or a can of soda from certain electronics store. Now everyone can have a hidden camera and the resolution of mobiles is improving. Even worse is that they don't leave a trail. If a person was caught with a film camera then the film could be removed. Now people can send the photo right when it was taken to theri home PC. The mobile phone would not have a record of it being taken and within hours a photo can be on the net permanently.Soon streaming video will be possible on 3G
: I believe that if the hidden mobile phone photos continue it will ruin our hobby. I truly enjoy being au natural when I roast in the sauna for hours and then plunge into a cold pool. It is fine to be nude when others are also sharing the experience. I do not want others sitting at home to be seeing me in the sauna via a mobile phone. If they want the experience of seeing beautiful anude women than they can join me on a nude beach or a sauna complex.
