I took E100S and Velvia.  In both cases, they were out of the boxes but in
the foil.  I handed it to the person and told them it was professional film
and that was the end of it.  Airports were SFO, Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart,
and back.

Hope that helps.

Kevin,

I have no travel experience with 120 and was concerned that the security
guards would not believe it to be film.

Did they accept your 120 in the foil packaging? In the boxes?

Thanks,
Dennis
