True. But tests in the UK have repeatedly failed to show any X-ray
damage even on multiple (I think 16 was the max) passes with MODERN
European machines. Maybe someone recalls the details? The Association
of Photographers & British Journal of Photography were involved & the
tests pretty thorough.
My own experience (not shooting delicate tonal work, just reportage)
has been of no problems with modern machines (& successful evasion of
South American film friers).
