USA Today:

"Celebrities get to do a lot of cool things in a lot of cool places. And lots of them bring their cameras with them. May is National Photography Month, as proclaimed by President Reagan in 1984. We take a look back over the years at celebrities getting on the other side of the lens."

I watched an interview sometime last week with Scott Caan, who's been in the Ocean 13 movies and currently stars in the "new" Hawaii Five-O series as Dano and learned that he also has a thing for photography.

He said that his dad, James Caan, gave him an old Nikon FM that belonged to Francis Ford Coppola as a birthday gift years ago and got hooked taking photos.  

Here's the link to his site:

Cool!

Yep, the celebrity camera club was posted elsewhere. But re-posts are always a welcome thing if you don't feel like digging the archives for stuff..
