I normally haven't taken color print film through x-rays, but my
slide films do get nasty D-Max when passed through several
times.  I don't care what THEY say, it does affect slow films
too.  I put all my film in a 1-gallon ziplock bag and have them
hand-check it and if I have time and the line isn't too bad,
I'll hand check the camera.

If the line is bad and the security people are looking frazzled,
I don't bother with the camera, computer or anything--just my
film.  Of course, my camo-covered tripod will get their
attention, but as long as I don't have an NRA hat on, I'm ok.
