I like the idea of cameras in the courtroom, but if they are allowed, there should be some sort of delay, 24 hrs perhaps.

The danger I see would be in litigants arguing to the cameras instead of the court. I think having a 24-hour delay gets around that somewhat by removing any sense of instant feedback on how their arguments were interpreted by the public.
