Thanks for all the replies.
Our hotel is near the Trevi fountain so I will be a bit wary about taking the Camera out at night. I will also disguise it as a normal SLR as best I can, but I guess they go for those as well.
Any advice on the best way from the Airport (da Vinci) to the hotel and a rough guess as to how much is should cost by Taxi would be helpful. We are staying at the Acadamia.
Thanks once again
