I don't know what a protometer is. Do you mean photometer? They'd probably
think it was some sort of detonation device - how many people today know
about SLR cameras? Personally, I never check my camera because I've seen
what the airlines have done to my other luggage. It's a tough camera, but
I'd rather bash it in myself.

I noted in conversation that I've always regarded my Nikon as a
potential weapon. Virtually a steel brick on a sling. Airplane cabin
would make it tough to get it up to speed, but it could be done.
Figuring I may be thinking ahead of my time, I've taken to checking the
camera gear. Do you suppose they'd let a Protometer on as carry on?
