Some digital cameras also have a blue-tooth like connection that allows them to upload your pixs instantly to whatever time wasting social network you are hooked up to...

For that reason alone I can understand why the FAs would be advising folks to turn off the digital cameras in your possession...
Haven't heard anything about FAs getting shocked from everyone having their cameras on and clicking away at the same time....
