Photo Bag News

Think Tank Photo released three new photo bags at photokina today: the 10^th anniversary limited edition Airport International LE Classic, limited edition Urban Disguise Classic, and Production Manager 40.

The 10^th anniversary limited edition Airport International LE Classic ($419.75) is a premium  rolling camera bag. Crafted from 1680D ballistic nylon with a durable water repellent (DWR) coating, YKK RC Fuse zippers with stylish fine-grain leather accents and panels and replaceable in-line skate style wheels—this bag offers Think Tank’s premium quality, durability and innovative design.

Measuring 14x21x8” and weighing 9.5-11.5 pounds (depending on the accessories used) this carry-on roller lets photographers safely store their valuable camera bodies, lenses and accessories in the overhead bin or under the seat. The security features include front pocket and main compartment TSA approved combination locks and a cable (from a secret rear hatch) that allows you to secure the bag to a post, tree or other immovable object. The Airport International LE Classic can accommodate up to a 500mm f/4 lens (unattached), additional smaller lenses and up to 2 gripped D-SLR camera bodies and various accessories.

The limited edition Urban Disguise Classic ($289.75) shoulder bag is crafted from strong 840D and 420D high-density nylon with Ultra-Stretch mesh and nylon seatbelt webbing and a durable water-repellent (DWR) outer coating and a polyurethane coating on the underside of the fabric. This professional looking, stylish bag offers genuine full-grain leather accents and panels with YKK RC Fuse zippers and antique–plated metal hardware.

The interior features removable closed cell foam dividers, a polyurethane-backed liner and dividers, 210D silver-toned nylon, Super-Grip Velex and a 2x polyurethane-coated nylon 190T seam sealed rain cover. The expansion zipper increases the depth to fit a gripped D-SLR with a standard zoom lens attached in the main compartment (50 & 60 models only). The pass-through shoulder strap allows this bag to be used with a rolling suitcase; the wide pocket under the lid is large enough for gripped camera bodies, documents or a tablet.

Zippers on the camera and laptop compartment can be locked and the stretchable side pockets can be used for a water bottle or umbrella. The front pocket organizer allows quick access to pens, keys and business cards. The Urban Disguise 35 classic measures 10.6x14x7.5” and weighs just 3.3 pounds. The 40 Classic measures 14.1x10.8x7.5” and weighs 3.9 pounds. The 50 Classic measures 15x10.8x7.5” and weighs 4.2 pounds. The 60 Classic measures 16.7x12.6x7.9” and weighs 4.6 pounds.

The Production Manager 40 ($549) high-capacity rolling photography gear case was designed with professional photographers in mind. Offering a safe, convenient way to transport lighting equipment it features a spacious gusseted front pocket that fits reflectors, umbrellas, cables and more. Crafted from durable 1680D ballistic nylon with a water-repellent (DWR) outer coating and a polyurethane coating on the underside of the fabric.
