Marji, no problem with the film.  Just the camera if your'r hand 
carrying it.  A friend flew into Heathrow with an 8x10 and stopped 
traffic.  No one would believe it was a camera.  I jamed things ;up a 
few years ago in San Juan carrying my Bronica EC.  It ws sitting 
on end in my brief case.  The inspectors nearly died seeing this 
metal canister with irregulat shapes on the outside.  Opening it 
didn't help.  Only after removing a lens did I get through.
