Historic UK Tube Station Bans DSLRs But Not Other Cameras

sign_miniHere's an odd little quirk of the modern age you're not likely to see again soon. South of Holborn in London (many nice bookstores in the area), there's a tube station that has been out of use for decades. Aldwych (previously Strand) station has been preserved as an historical landmark and used in a number of films and shows. Just recently it was opened up to the public for tours: 20 for entry, doubtless an interesting spectacle popular among both tourists and locals.And just outside, a sign reading: "Due to their combination of high-quality sensor and high resolution, digital SLR cameras are unfortunately not permitted inside the station." How delightfully absurd!
