At mine, no cell phones or cameras were even allowed in the BUILDING, much less the room where the oath ceremony was being held....everything had to be left with security two floors down.

 

Every building has it's own rules in regards to cameras and cell phones at oath ceremonies----where is yours being held?  My suggestion is to call where it is being held and ask.

depends on the location i suppose. I happened to have my infopass appointment at the same office where they do the oath ceremony. We were allowed to bring stuff (i brought my laptop to kill time). 

 

One lady who sat by my side was unfortunate, she did not charge her phone and when she had taken her oath, she had no camera to take her pictures (she came alone as well). but the officer was nice and asked if someone can take pictures for her and send her the pics later.

Thank you for the response. I had my oath yesterday and we were able to bring cellphones 📱. I ended up not bringing our  camera it’s heavy anyway, but I think it was ok. Everyone there was nice. We were able to take videos as well from the start until the end of the ceremony.
