I've read a lot about airports' x-rays damaging the film, but... is that really so or it's rather another one of those obsesed-exagerations? what do your experiences say?
As far as I'm concerned, I've been scanned film a lot of times, and never noticed any real damage. And I'm talking about both unexposed and exposed film. Sometimes I did notice some lack of color saturation, for example, but I'm pretty sure that's my fault (bad photographer, you know ) or/and the film I chose, but not x-rays, since that was definitely not a clear fog, or things like that.
Soon I'll be travelling with a lot of film (again, both exposed and unexposed) and I'm becoming a little obsesed, I must confess. Should I really worry about x-rays? what are your experiences?
