Tourists visiting the White House with a guided tour will now be able to take photos inside the building and post them on social networks. However, camcorders and selfie sticks cannot still be used.

Announcement of the lifting of the ban that existed for 40 years, made the first lady of the United States Michelle Obama, posting a video message in Instagram photo service.

“If you've been on a tour of the White House, you've probably seen this warning,” Obama said, holding a prohibitory sign. “There’s no more of this,” she added with a smile, tearing up the paper.

In the White House itself, they have not yet explained the lifting of this ban. According to a report distributed by the office of the first lady, you can take pictures on your mobile phone or using compact cameras, but not to disturb others.

Visitors are now advised to upload their photos from the White House to the Internet with the #WhiteHouseTour hashtag. However, video cameras, cameras with interchangeable lenses, any tripods and camera sticks are prohibited. You can not also conduct a live broadcast of his visit on the Internet.
