Looking at air travel over the second weekend in July. I would like to take at least part of my dSLR gear and naturally wouldn't trust it to baggage handling, so carry-on it is. I can imagine a bag full of lenses looking somewhat like a bag full of pipebombs on an x-ray scanner, and am wondering if I might have to make an angst-ridden decision over which two favorites I couldn't afford to be without, in order to speed up the screening process.
Who has done this before in a North American airport and how much trouble was it?
