70% of the time its excellent yes. Mostly always stable but when it gets dark and jumpt the image can get cloudy. Really download it though

security dude stands right in front of him quite a but so god knows. Surprised Bono didn't even notice him. It is a digicam so it may have been recorded on a conventional looking stills camera rather than a camcorder

I'd say if you went in with equipment like those at the US / European shows do for video and audio recordings, then they might do something about it. But like you've said, because they may have thought he was taking photos - so they'd have no problems with it because security probably knows bootlegging is quite a big thing, and are powerless to stop it.
The concerts I've been to and had recording equipment quite visibly showing in the front row (including a quite bulky video camera), the security didn't do a thing about it. In fact, we had the singer kneel down and actually wave to the camera, so she obviously didn't mind (or didn't know). It does particularly surprise me one of the band members didn't notice.

Well, indeed security guards are powerless to tell you a single word about recording or bootlegging or taknig photos or nothing like that. They simply can't (except if both the artist and the promoter allow them to!).
I don't think U2 mind at all for bootlegging (we all know the story about Edge's bootlegs, etc), so why not recording? The strange thing is that, being in the first row (where there are pushes, people waving, shouting, struggling, etc) the camera still so stable throughout the show.THAT is the amazing thing.

Wouldn't it be something to remember, him waving to you on camera? Brilliant.
