Tony,
The reason being that in the past people have made written notes of items and their placement in the museum, and have then stolen items. It's a simple security matter that the owners have seen fit to put in place. It should deter no one, so to say "...on principle most people don't bother to visit..." is misleading and a slur on the museum and those who run it. Perhaps you can provide some hard evidence (i.e. numbers) of those who don't visit on principle because of the camera/notes embargo. Or is this just a load of bullshit?
