Was the last performance professionally filmed?

Did anyone who attended see multiple pro video cameras?

I know Prince used to record every show, but it was usually audio (video only tended to be for particular shows or where large screens were used), but I wonder if anyone noticed him filming Atlanta, as he clearly intended to release at least audio of it.

I don't mean the one official guy with a pro camera (like the Hit n' Run shows), but a set up that looked worthy of DVD release.

I watched his last performance of Purple Rain, but it was crowd phone footage.

Would be great if there was a chance that a pro video might see the light of day.

I thought if any shows were worthy of being professionally filmed it would have been the Sydney Opera House, probably the most famous performing venue on Earth but there was no obvious film crew there neutral

The Paisley Park show was filmed (at least the 7pm one).

I sure didn't see any cameras in the two Atlanta shows. There weren't any on the stage at the sides of the stage or anywhere near the front.
