Sure about that? As you know, the CA red light cameras were turned off for a time b/c of this practice. The manufacturer does not share in the revenue any longer b/c private companies taking a cut of law enforcement fines wasn't acceptable. I don't know anything about photo cameras, but the concept is the same.
