  Two short and good examples of replies, one pro-S9 dealing with privacy
issue only, and the other opposed suggesting yet another different person
(the subject) should get copyright.

For those keeping score we have 4 different potential *copyright* holders:

  - photographer
  - owner of camera
  - commissioner
  - subject(s)


  I've already stated I believe it needs to be the owner of the
camera/film for practical purposes relating to the medium that have
nothing to do with photographers rights, commissioners "rights", or the
privacy rights of subjects (the last to me having nothing to do with
copyright).
