Hand Carry.
The machines that scan the checked film are very powerful. Things may
have changed, but hand carry is the best.
Bring a changing bag.
Insist on hand inspection or swab. Be firm and resolute.
I would bring some dummy film, and explain that it was for them to know
what film felt like, and that they would go into the changing bag with
one hand, and I would go in with the other. Usually after the first can,
they would just wave me through.
By the way, I once sent several cans of still film various speed, 100,
200 and 400. Sent it through the hand check X-ray machines many many
times. It was a slow day, but this was before the days of the TSA.
No ill effects.
