All this talk about the new x-ray machines has me spooked about what film to
carry on an upcoming trip! I had been thinking of taking a few hundred feet
of Tmax, but talk is, that transparency film might fare better due to lower
silver content. Unfortunately, I am travelling through a few airports on
this trip, including Denver, San Francisco, Honolulu, Narita, plus a few in
mainland China. Anyone gotten 400-speed print film through these places okay
lately in the recent past? In a real pinch, might it make sense to purchase
film in Beijing, and have it processed to my specs before leaving Hong Kong?
