Suitcase Digital
January 21st, 2006
When flying, is it better to leave my cameras in a suitcase,digital and film, or carry them on the plane?
For both film and digital cameras, you'll be safer carrying them on board with you. In most instances, the film cameras are the most susceptible to the x-ray machines, but why take chances?
At the same time, the x-ray machine at the security check-point can also damage film. The security personnel will tell you that it only affects high-speed film, but this is not true. The x-rays are cumulative, so the more times film goes through a machine, the more likely that it will be that it will be damaged.
I am a professional photographer who travels a great deal, and I have yet to convert to a high-priced digital camera. When I travel, I take my flm out of the little cardboard containters and place the rolls in a nylon mesh bag. I try to pass through the security check point when there are as few other travelers as possible, and politely but firmly request a hand inspection of the film only (the camera can go through the x-ray machine, as long as there is no film in it.).
I've had security people argue with me, and tell me it only affects the high-speed film, so I've added a few rolls of very high speed film to my bag. That way I can tell them that there is a potential problem with the high speed film. I've never used that film - it just travels with me.
I mentioned it once already, but BE POLITE. Be firm, but do not allow them to pass the film through the x-ray machine. You might get away with it once, twice or six times, but you will get bitten.
Finally, camera stores sell lead-lined bags to protect from x-rays. These work, but security will ALWAYS want to see inside. Consequently, it's just more convenient for me to ask for the hand-check. Also, the lead-lined bags are generally pretty small, so you may need several to carry enough film for a longer trip.
Good luck!

Crosley Autorama CD $169.99 If you're a Crosley Radio fan, you might know that founder Powel Crosley brought mass-produced radios and appliances to this nation, but we bet you didn't know he also became famous as the first U.S. manufacturer to build a production model sports car. Now you can have the best of both worlds with the Crosley Autorama CD . Sleek lines and side-mounted speakers with a chrome grill give you a taste of the 1950s - think sock-hops, drive-in movies, diners and, of course, classic cars.

About Crosley In 1920, Powel Crosley founded the company that pioneered radio broadcasting and mass market manufacturing around the world. Dismayed with the $130 price tag for the radio receiver he promised to buy for his son's birthday, Crosley decided to make his own. Upon successfully building a working set for only $35, Crosley was quick to spot the mass market potential. It was a simple idea--design a fully functioning radio, meticulously craft each unit with obsessive detail and precise accuracy, and of course add a measure of consideration for the wallet. Today, the Crosley name lives on with superbly detailed replicas that truly transcend time. Reintroductions of original vintage radios and turntables feature the newest technologies graced by unforgettable Crosley stylings. The Crosley Collection includes AM/FM radios, portable suitcase-style record players and turntables, record changers, multi-functional audio cassette/compact disc players, jukeboxes, music boxes, telephones, and |
