I second that.
My 20 rolls of E64 went through xray machines 12 times from Sweden to Mozambique (and back again) witout any fogging or problems. Just take them with your hand baggage and youre safe!

Is Spectra's 50d jittery?, 'thecircus' did you shoot the 50d tripod mounted or handheld, i've yet to see stable 50d super 8 images, ooh and stable 16mm 50d images! Its a great stock, only bettered by k25, but i have my doubts that 50d is suitable for cine applications. Now hows the GK cart ...

Thank you for the information, richard p. t.!
