Never a problem getting in or out through any gates. Most newer areas aren't even manned.

They can still take pictures (they do have devices that record pictures that move, even an iPhone can do it) so I don't think clear photos are an issue. I think it just started out that way many years ago and they just continued the "tradition." I don't find it a "problem," it usually works fine, I just find it an unnecessary annoyance that (IMO) serves no real purpose.

I think there's no button at the Belvedere gate up by the high school. I could be wrong.
