Digital BW, The Print

I travel fairly often in Europe (Italy/Spain/UK) and I 've never been able
to get a handcheck. The films are safe to 1600 iso so they always scan it .
But the scanners for hand luggage are ok - My last trip to Italy had a batch
of 400delta go through 8 different scanners and it was ok. Film is cheap
here too - 2-3 euros a roll of 120 delta
