[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I've taken R8's and R3's into China a bunch of times, entering via Beijing, Shanghai, Schenzhen, Guongdong, Xi'an, Guilin, and others and have never been even asked about the equipment. Sometimes I'm dressed in business attire, other times as a backpacker. No problem, no matter what kind of visa I'm carrying. Have fun and don't worry about customs. But don't put your film in your checked baggage. Carry it in and out, including in the States. I've never had any of my carry on film fogged by carry-on film scanners ( I carry 100 to 200 ASA film with no problems.)
