I will be traveling all through India this summer doing a photography project. I have been advised to carry all my film with me on planes, and present it to airport officials separately so that it wont have to go through those harmful x-ray checks that ruin film (especially in areas with older x-rays security checks which are not film safe to begin with). Is it better to check all film in with checked baggage There is an x-ray check at this juncture too, I believe. I have heard that there are lead pouches which will protect film from these x-rays. Do you know anything at all about this? Please let me know. Thanks!
