The FAA is quite restrictive in what we can do in the cockpit in flight. We can't use any personal electronic devices that have wireless capabilities, even if in airplane mode, so we can't use phone cameras or many consumer cameras (with wifi or bluetooth) in flight.

You can post pics to Instagram that were taken from a (regular) camera as well

there's an IAH 737 pilot on there who shows up in my explore feed from time to time; the next time he pops up, i'll update this post.
EDIT (5 months later): his insta is mike_j_morgan.
