A couple of years back the Chicago Tribune fired all their photographers
& told their reporters to use their iPhones to get photographs to go
along with news articles, so if he was using an actual DSLR, I'm
guessing he was NOT the press.

Yes, Paul, I had seen those before.
A typical setup that I had seen (and it makes sense): a "steady" frame,
a mic, and a monitor.
In this case, it was just a bare DSLR, no monitors/mics/.
Cotty: yep, that makes sense, and that's what I was guessing.
But it still looked a bit funny to me... "Big suits" running around with
DSLRs... :)

A lot of the press shooters in the D use DSLRs with monitors mounted atop.

I just caught a glimpse of the live broadcast of the inauguration.
In front of what I think was the family walking through the halls, there
was a guy with a hand-held DSLR-shaped camera (without any bracket), who
was definitely taking a video.
It's interesting what was the point...
Actually, I kust saw that guy again... I suspect he was not a
videographer, but just one of the staff members...
It's rather interesting and a bit strange to see that..
Might be govt staff or might be press. Not unusual out on the road these
days to see stills guys doing a bit of video for the agency/newspaper
website as required.
It's quite a historic occasion (no matter which part of the political
spectrum one sides with) and a bit of video after samey stills shots
will get plaudits from the boss.
