A system for turning on camera or camcorder power includes a camera or camcorder and an enclosure unattached to the camera or camcorder and suitable for storing and carrying the camera or camcorder, the enclosure having a radio-frequency identification tag sending a wireless signal identifying if the enclosure is closed or at least partially open, and the camera or camcorder having a radio frequency identification tag sensor sensing whether the tag identifies that the enclosure is closed or at least partially; a fastener or a zipper on the enclosure, wherein unfastening the fastener or unzippenng the zipper changes the state of the enclosure from closed to at least partially open; and if the sensor senses that the state has changed to at least partially open; then the power to the camera or camcorder is automatically turned on regardless of the light level inside and outside of the enclosure.
