Does the x-ray at the airport skrew up portable dvd players/laptops?

Do you put it through the x-ray machine, or do you hand the carrying bag to a security guy and they go through it?

CD players, Laptops, Shoes, Jackets, damn near anything loose, bags all go through the XRay machines. only thing that is subject to a hand search are A.) Medical supplies (in the event you have medication that can by some random act of god be possibly affected by X-ray) and B.) Film.

Film as in un-developed photographs.

I have put my digital camera, Laptop, DVD's and VHS's (in the rarity that I carry them) through the XRay machines no problems

Should be fine unless your camera uses film. Then just show them that its a film-style cam and they should be cool about it.

That explains why my Hong Kong photos came out s****y. I just got back two days ago and all of the photos are too grey or too light. I used the digital camera last time I went and I still don't like the digital cameras.
