(2004)
http://www.sanparks.org/docs/general/fi ... policy.pdf
Regulation 20(1) provides that a person may not undertake any of the following activities in a special nature reserve, national park or world heritage site except pursuant to a license, permit or agreement and subject to the payment of the appropriate fees between that person, or some other person, and the management authority:
(i) Subsection 20(1)(a) – the filming and simultaneous transmitting of photographic images by the use of a webcam or other image recording or transmitting device;
(ii) Subsection 20(1)(e) – the provision of, or the offering to provide, any service for a fee or a reward;
(iii) Subsection 20(1)(h) - an activity of any kind for the purpose of fund raising, personal gain or making a profit.
. 6. APPLICATION OF THE FILMING & PHOTOGRAPHY POLICY 6.1 Where material is taken by individuals for private use and personal enjoyment, such as tourists/members of the public taking photographs or videos, SANParks cedes the rights to such material.
6.2 However if the material is secured professionally or by amateurs within a National Park for use or with the intention for use for commercial or broadcast purposes or for resale, marketing, advertising, the film producers (local & international) will be charged a location fee, as well as a fee for any other services, resources or special concessions required of SANParks.
6.3 Footage or photographs taken in national parks and submitted to competitions and third parties without a commercial agreement (such as a photography competition or television programme) will be considered to be for personal use and not for commercial gain.
8.1 Filming or photography fees can be waived where the value to SANParks in publicity gained far outweighs the value gained by the levy of permit fees.
8.1.1 This will be at the discretion of the Park Manager, in consultation with the relevant Communications Manager at a national park or corporate level.
8.2 Fees will be waived for news crews, registered journalists and domestic television broadcasters.

I say they can go to hell, as National Parks belong to all.

We pay for the government! And SANParks!
This was a simple application for professional filmmakers, no problem and pretty standard. Then in 2008 it was dredged up when youtube came along...

Re: SANParks "copyright" on All Photo & Video Material Taken
This is also odd:
(iii) Subsection 20(1)(h) - an activity of any kind for the purpose of fund raising, personal gain or making a profit.
Capitalist tour operators book dozens of units out every year for the purposes of making a profit?

We are talking about photos and videos, but of course the tour operators show pictures of the accommodations
