Digital Camera
 

Anyone know if the x-ray machines at airlines damage the camera or any equipment (rechargers, batteries, compact flash cards, etc.)?<BR><BR>Little late for me. Just went through one a few weeks ago, but can't help but wonder.

We have an Olympus 3000 with a Smartmedia card and we also carry the rechargers and batteries but never had any problem with the xray machines at the airport.

I just returned from a trip where a Nikon Coolpix 950 was run through scanning machines at least 10 times. Haven't seen any ill consequences.

Thanks for the reassurance.<BR><BR>I have a new Kodak digital that got scanned 4 or 5 times. No problems yet, just wondering if anyone else had. I guess it's the problems with film that makes me wonder if there's an issue with digital. But, guess not!<BR><BR>Thanks!

Film is totally different from the media that your pictures are saved on. Laptops go through scans all the time without ill-effects, so a digital camera should be fine.
