so i took 10 rolls of film on vacation, managed to get past 3 airport x-rays without any film going through, and then like an idiot i throw my bag through one at the train station without taking it out.
how can i check if the film is fogged or not, before i either throw out or shoot the whole box? should i get a blank roll developed? should i shoot a roll normally and develop it as a test?
for reference, its 7 rolls of tri-x 400 (2 already shot at 1600 but still undeveloped), the rest I also intended to push to either 800 or 1600.
and 3 rolls of CineStill 800T (all unshot)
They'll be fine, there's nothing you can do either way. The 1600 MIGHT have some fogging but I can't imagine a train station is using a scanner as strong as the ones in airports
i had my undeveloped, but already shot slide film and color neg rolls pass thru x rays. they came out pretty fine, no rings or fogging or weird stuff.
but, this was in argentina, and im willing to bet money that these machines havent been serviced since the 70's lol.

I had to get my film scanned at Amsterdam airport. My TriX was fine even though it was pushed to 1600 but my Cinestill was ruined (big wavey white things all over the images) . I also had a load of Portra 400 and it was fine too.
I'm not sure about train stations but...
Generally the xrays at airports for carry-on bags are pretty weak and won't fuck your shit up. The xrays that scan checked bags WILL fuck your shit up regardless of ISO. I can post some Portra and E100VS examples if anyone is interested.

I had some 200 speed c41 go through checked in baggage before they were exposed and had no fogging on them

were you flying in (unexposed film) or flying out (exposed but undeveloped)?

>yfw all beginning of roll 1st frame photo edges are actually contact prints of the canister's lightproofing felt.
Also make a new thread already hf guy.
wait how did people deal with that before digital existed? did airports not have scanners?

They have had scanners for a long long time. Most of the time, scanners don't hurt film at all. Only when it's really high sensitivity will it have an affect. But they've always been willing to hand-check film if asked.

23. I just never traveled with film and suppressed most of my childhood memories
