On two occaisions the operator has cranked the machine to a more powerful "see through" at level attempting to see into the bag. Don't know if it works because on both occaisions I had to open the bags to show what was inside! Personally I don't have much faith in them and have any on board film carried, out of cannisters, and in clear freezer bags which can be quickly pulled from equipmnt bag. Then just shove the camera bag into the machine. So far this has worked every time. There isn't any reason for a hand check of the bag if you don't have any film in it. ted
