RE: Shipping a camera abroad/Airport & postal scanners fogging film.
Goodness knows what is happening to my server, but I'm getting a reply before the original message is seen by myself! Yes, I have spotted several LXs and met people who have missed their vocation in life as comedians. I don't have one yet, but it is only a matter of time.

I remeber crying when my guitar got injurred. (the glue gave on the headstock) I rememebr how I did the first aid with the most care and how I begged the people who fixed it to take good care of it. Tieing this in with the airport crap, flying with guitars is the worst thing ever... Especially now. Will it fit through the X-ray or not, will it fit into the overhead compatrment, etc. I already told my story on how much cooperation I got at the airport when I wanted to see if my guitar will fit or not...

Shipping a camera abroad/Airport & postal scanners fogging film.
Cotty, Glen and everyone, I hear what you both say, but the lottery element, will it or won't it arrive, do I pay duties or not(?) is just not good business. Glen: I understand your situation rather better as my wife is a talented viola musician, I can insure my camera and if it was lost I could buy another. Like for like with instruments not possible - money is not the only issue. Before anyone says my camera is irreplaceable, I know of people who have given up music as a result of losing their instrument. I am very fond of my MX, but it is the film which has been shot on it which is my reference point, not the camera itself. That's me done :-) Malcolm - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
