It's interesting to hear you say this. As a guy who works in a venue, I've seen for years the haphazard implementation of security measures. I remember walking right through the magnetometers at the Olympics with my mag-light, keys, change, more keys, leatherman, and radio.... the day before the bombing in the park. The day after, my fillings set it off. A week later, back to the pre-bomb settings. We no longer admit any backpacks and have been searching all other bags since the 11th. I KNOW my Micro-Trekker backpack is smaller than some women's purses. Cameras (any type) are allowed at most of our events including Falcon's games but certain events will restrict them to P&S types or no still cameras at all...
