If I'm honest, and it might be just me, but I'd find it a bit immersion breaking seeing a guy run around trying to photos of us all the time (because I know they'll be going straight on our forums after the op).
Maybe if someone really wants to take photos we could add a slot that allows them to float around with the built-in Arma camera. Either way, we'll also always be one man short.

Yes, I would against somebody being visibly running around. Somebody who is (very) dedicated on making nice pictures would to have zeus access for that mission, so he could use the camera of zeus, or if he is "on the ground" can make himself invisible with ares.
I suppose there is a balance to be struck, personally, I would enjoy playing the role of a British Army Photographer embedded within the unit (which I suppose would lend itself well to the patrol ops as its more of a role playing things maybe). I tried to find a video I've seen before but couldn't, its of one of the British Army Photographers in Afghan, where he's in a firefight, putting down fire just like everybody else, but every once in a while stops and takes some really nice images, i'l try and find the link. Although this probably doesn't require a dedicated role in game, as Goodson's screenshots show. Its not like real life where you can only take pictures with a camera.
EDIT: Here's the link, Its a facebook one though, so not sure how well it might work for some etc.
