Couple questions from a casual

I just realized I really need to clean my keyboard.

Keep the film in carry-on and it will be fine. Check it and get fucked. When shooting sunny snow on e6 I always overexposed 2 stops from what my meter was telling me.

Unnecessary if you keep things in your carry-on.

Also, those things weigh a fair bit.

Literally all you need to do is put them in a ziploc bag and ask for a hand check when you're going through checking. Most of the time the people checking it are cool and used film themselves.

yeah but 18 bucks for an x ray proof film bag for a piece of mind and a faster security check is worth it to me.

Have you used one? Its not any faster...at least in my experience. The x-ray person sees some weird bag on the screen, they pull your bag aside, open it up and find the film, and then either want to run it through again without the bag or do hand check on the film.

Either ask for a hand check right off the bat or let it go through the x-ray normally.

X-ray doesnt affect films, at least for mine shitty ones.
>asked at airport to handcheck them
>guy said its safe to scan through x-ray
Shot those rolls, developed, turned out good.
Vista plus 200 i think they where.

Exactly, carry-on xrays are fine. Checked baggage xrays are not (ask me how I know).

I checked the same roll of Delta 3200 on flights out and home for three trips before shooting it.
It was fine.

I still take my film as carry-on but I don't worry much about the X-ray machines.
Maybe it's different for IR. I'll know in a week since I'm going to Malta this Thursday and taking some Rollei 400 IR and a single roll of Ilford SFX.
Guess I could check one roll of the Rollei and see what happens.

IR is fine. Flew with EIR loaded in my camera.
