Re: [DX-NEWS] Fogged DX photographs

Here's a long-ish article about travelling with film:

  http://www.artwolfe.com/archive/tips_02.html

NEVER NEVER EVER put film in your suitcase - those X-ray machines WILL KILL it.
 Put it in your carry-on instead.  It's often OK to let film go through the
carry-on scanner, especially slow film (ISO 100 or ISO 200). However, my wife
will NEVER put any film through it, even ISO 50. As Art Wolfe points out in the
article above, the effect is CUMULATIVE.

go to your camera shop...they sell these nice lead bags..and they're not that 
expensive. 

For QSL card pictures, I recommend a digital camera with HIGH resolutionyou have a 
lot more flexibiltiy in cropping/editing for that 'perfect' shot.
