With all the fun noises that a camera makes these days (clicks, dogs barking, "say cheese", etc.) It can ruin an attractions experience. The auto-focus beam ABSOLUTELY ruins the experience. The white light or red striped light is annoying to look at. It makes you feel like you are about to be shot.
So, unless you can make your camera completely silent and have no auto-focus beam, please don't take any photos on attractions.
Actually, turning off the AF beam and all the sounds is the first thing I do when I get a new camera. I find them annoying, even if I'm not at the parks. And in dark rides, I make sure I turn off the large LCD display on my digital camera and only use the eyepiece.
anyway, mine for the day -
