Magazine material reactivity with film

Post by Brandt »

I remember reading that the metal in older Mitchell mags reacted with film and caused scintillation. Is this still true? Are there certain metals or plastics that don't play well with filmstock?

I don't know about metal. Only use polypropylene plastics with film.
