A friend tells me that if you don't like the idea of these barometric passports (biometric is the word they use, and it means...er...measuring your face, distance between the eyes etc) here's a wheeze. You are perfectly entitled to take the picture yourself as long as it is in the prescribed format) but the lens on your camera (usually used for longer distances than the length of your arms) is different to the one in the photo booth (always short distances) so the photo is microscopically biothingily different and the state will have recorded inaccurate information.
I couldn't possibly comment.
