Subject: [Leica] T-Max 3200 X-Ray question

Hello fellow LUG netters,

I just got back from Havana and have yet to process my film. I shot a
number of rolls of T-Max 3200 and Tri-X pushed to 1600. I managed to get
through Canadian customs both ways and into Cuba without the fast film
getting X-Rayed. The T-Max box warns against x-rays in bold type. However,
the Cuban customs agent would not let me leave without running the film
through the X-Ray. Question: What can I expect to see on my film? Will it
be fogged? Will lines appear? Should I even bother processing it?

Cheers, Dave Fisher
