In a flight on 1996 from Munich to Hong Kong, when I was going through the
security check the guy asked me to shot a frame with my camera. Then I wind
my OM4Ti and took a shot. I think this was the shot I took:

What about non-electronic cameras?
Are Leica M film cameras likely to be given a hard time ?

As you may know, last week the US asked European airports with direct
flights to the US to put in place additional security precautions in
light of a terrorist threat that has been picked up. The focus seems to
be on electronic devices, and supposedly at some airport if your device
will not turn on (because the battery is dead, for example), then it will
not travel.
Different airport have implemented different things. I passed through
Rome and Munich last week, both of which have flights to the US. In Rome,
they simply had a separate security screening for passengers to the US.
Since I was flying to Munich, this did not apply to me, and the screening
for me was normal. But when flying home from Munich yesterday, I was
asked to turn on my camera and take a picture with it, and the agent also
looked through each of my lenses. Not a big deal, since I keep my cameras
charged so I can take pictures, but just a note of caution.
Funny enough, I was NOT asked to turn on my iPad, computer or iPod.
Cheers,
