I am thinking about buying a digital camera for a trip to China in the near future. Do airport security machines, x-rays, effect the quality of the digital images? On a recent trip to Egypt I took a regular 35 mm camera and bought the film in Egypt. It was to no avail because every hotel entrance and air play trip had multiple scanners.

No x rays should not harm most cards... but to be on the safe side read the label... yes x-rays will harm film
