My experience has been different. I've travelled perhaps fifty times with a backpack of MF/LF cameras and film. I have been asked to open my backpack every time except one.
So what I always do is put less sensitive films in a separate gray plastic tub with keys combs, cell phones, and other easily identified devices/items. That way the technician does not spend a lot of time with the stuff under the beam x-raying the film to death.
And I ask for hand inspection on certain unopened roll films that I perceive to be more x-ray sensitive.
So far no problems. Bob G.
