Kodak Alaris confirme que les nouveaux scanners d’aéroports dits « Scanner CT » peuvent endommager les films non développés.

Il faudra dorénavant demander une vérification manuelle des films et surtout ne pas les laisser en bagage à main.

Protect film from x-rays. X-rays can fog unprocessed film. When you travel by commercial airline, your checked luggage is commonly subjected to x-ray examination by a CT (Computed Tomography) scanner. Many airport security departments are now investing in additional CT scanners for carry-on bags, with a goal of eventually having the machines at every security checkpoint. To avoid any danger of fogging unprocessed film, always hand-carry your film - including loaded cameras - and always request a visual inspection at the airport security check point.Note: • Processed film is not affected by x-rays.• The traditional door frame walk-through and hand-held metal detectors used to check passengers are not x-ray devices and do not affect film.• Millimeter wave body scanners use radio waves, and produce no ionizing radiation.Sometimes mailed packages are also x-rayed; if you include unprocessed film in a package, label the package “Undeveloped Photographic Film. Please Do Not X-Ray.” Film mailed in clearly marked processing mailers sold by photofinishers is usually not subjected to x-ray inspection
