Digital camera memory cards xrayed?

We have an olympus D-490Zoom and it also has smart media cards. We went to Mexico last yr. and everything you carry on, including our camera went through the xray. This did not hurt our pictures! Hope this helps.

Just a tip.... Take all films/digital memory cards out of the respective camera(s), place them in a lead-lined film storage bag (available at just about any photo store for a reasonable price) and put the bag in your checked luggage vs. carryon. Been travelling a lot of years - never had a problem.

Have had Digitals with me the last three years. Never had the the memory card either in the cameras or in the camera bags bothered by the Xray.

Could you also carry your memory cards on your person so it would not get xrayed or is a metal detector not good either? Thanks for all the replies.
