Is it legal to film someone without their consent?

This question is especially directed to situations involving protest where people may or may not say “I do not give you permission to film me”.

Also, do police officers have the right to put their hand over a camera or order you to turn it off or ‘put it down’?

I would like answers to cite specific legal references or application in an area that would know the extent of the law.

Thank you.
