Photo to Release Soft, Lightweight
Think Tank Photo announces that in November it will
release the CityWalker™ messenger bag
series. Designed with the urban
photographer in mind, the new bags will come in three models – CityWalker 10, CityWalker 20, and CityWalker 30 – and in two
colorways: Black and Blue Slate.
The CityWalkers’ design emphasizes fit and comfort,
premium quality, and functional flexibility. Extremely lightweight, the bags feature a high quality
silver-toned nylon liner, RC Fuse External/YKK zippers, and antique nickel
plated metal hardware. They have a
sound silencer on the main flap, extra flaps for smaller lenses with a fully
lined velex insert for maximum customization, internal pockets that fit a
pro-size flash, and a removable padded insert.
The CityWalker 10 fits one standard size
body with a 24-70 attached, plus one to two small extra lenses, a flash, and a tablet. The CityWalker
20 holds one standard size body with a 24-70 attached or a 70-200 detached,
plus extra lenses, a flash, and a tablet.
The CityWalker 30 holds one
standard size body with a 24-70 attached or a 70-200 detached, plus two to four
extra lenses, a flash, and a 15” laptop.
“The
CityWalkers are a classic ‘walk around’ bag,” said Doug Murdoch, ThinkTank Photo
CEO and Lead Designer.

focused on an active lifestyle.”

Top- and
Front-accessible Photographer Rolling Pilot’s Case
Think Tank
Photo announces that in November it will release the Airport Navigator™, the
photography industry’s first rolling pilot’s case that allows photographers to
access gear from the top and the front.
The new pilot’s case also includes a shoulder strap for easing past gate
check attendants.
The AirportNavigator™ holds two pro-size bodies, plus three to six extra lenses and most
15.4” laptops,
iPads and documents.
The two external side pockets can also accommodate pro-size flashes or
water bottles.
The new roller’s lightweight
design emphasizes fit and comfort, premium quality, and flexibility and
function. The custom handle
extends to total of 40” for easy rolling.
The pilot’s case utilizes the highest quality YKK RC Fuse zippers, custom
designed and replaceable in-line skate wheels, and antique nickel plated metal
hardware. It features a
shoulder strap whose piggy-back function allows for easy attachment to other
rollers.
“This
project dates back many years as our designers strived to create a dual access
roller,” said Doug Murdoch, Think Tank Photo CEO and Lead Designer. “Through different revisions, we
found that the most reasonable style for this case was a Pilot’s type bag. This effort culminated in the creation
of a rolling case that has top and front access for wedding, event and travel
photographers. This is yet another unique first for the camera industry.”

15” Laptop compartment

iPad/document pocket
