Importing Film

Post by deadpan » Tue Apr 28, 2009 5:58 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Hi,
just interested if anyone has imported film (ideally 8x10) from the US to here? Aside from customs etc. has anyone found any other ill effects on the resulting film from x-ray scans etc.?

Thanks

I haven't tried importing film into the UK but I regularly buy sheets of 5x4 from the States (as well as Quickload, which isn't available where I live) via a variety of carriers. So far, no problems at all with x-ray fogging (or anything else, for that matter).
