Hi all,


In a week or two I am leaving for Boca Raton, Florida on a family vacation. I am planning to bring my Camera gear (7D + 300 f/4L IS and maybe a rented lens) on the aircraft (carry-on). I am going to buy a Crumpler backpack (Whickey & Cox) to carry my gear. As I have never taken my gear on a plane, I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer for me:


1. Will my camera gear trip security at customs? Anything I should do to prevent this?


2. Is it possible for my gear to be confiscated for a specific reason?


3. What precautions should I take to make sure everything's "hunky dory"?


4. Am I just being overcautious?


thanks to all in advance for help. much appreciated [H]
