Is it ok or safe to use a digital camera on a plane??

Not while taking off but while the plane has reached its height and the speed is stable...

It is perfectly fine to use cameras on planes to take pictures AND videos. They will not cause interference with ground to air radio systems (which is why radios are banned).

It is NOT okay however, to burst into the cockpit and take a flashy picture directly into the captain and co-captain's eyes as it may lead to temporary blindness :D

dunno i guess u culd ask tha people that walk down and surve u and they culd tell u

yes, its better than using a film one because the security x-rays can harm film

if it wasn't safe they wouldn't let you board with it .

Yes, it is OK

Its perfectley ok but only when electronics are allowed. They do not send Electrical hyperthimay signals to ground. they could get mixed up with the TTnavigation Signals sending to the ground allowing the Inflight GPS to be acceible at 3100 feet above sea level. But Cellular devices wont make the plane fall to the ground. Only Cellular devices containing as much Information as a GPFSG signla will destroy the readings of the aircraft. Those are highley rare though.

yea its fine to take a digital photo of like the clouds or what not.

yup.I remember our pilot was taking pics of Mt Everest.

Cameras, phones, they won't likely to interfere with aircraft's navigations. It's a myth. At least in my umpteen years of airline flying experience.

Yes.

www.MyEnglishSchool.jp teaches aviation english to pilots but can also help you with flight theory :)

Yes it is okay to use your digital camera once the aircraft has reached cruising altitude.

Its harmless at any time! I hate the way they ban it on take off and landing. Its ridiculous. The only troublesome items are radio transmitters like cell phones and RC toys. Even they are only trouble because they "could" interfere with GPS navigation which isn't even used during take off or landing!!!

The myths of exploding fuel tanks is absolutely ludicrous too!

All electonic devices these days need to pass strict electromagnetic emissions standards these days and that includes digital cameras.
