Hi folks, I'm off to Mexico in 3 weeks. Part of the time there will be spent shooting a family wedding.

When I was doing the pre wedding shoot I stupidly suggested we do some 3 strobe shots. Of course the bride loved them so now I'm bringing a whole heap of kit with me.

Aside from brollies and tripod it's all going in my Thinktank Airport V2 carry on case.

Heres were it gets tricky! I read on the customs form it's fine to bring "2 cameras and 12 rolls of film" into the country. It says nothing about additional lenses or strobes.

I was wondering if any of you fine folk had any 1st hand experience of bringing kit into Mexico? There's an even split of horror stories v 'yeah, it'll be fine' on the web!

Any help greatly appreciated.
