Description

   The black Airport Essentials Backpack from Think Tank makes a photographer's life easier because on the outside it looks like regular luggage while the inside speaks differently. The pack is designed to hold your standard DSLR, 4-6 basic zoom lenses as well as your iPad and 13" laptop. It is sized to handle your 300mm f/2.8, so if you are a nature shooter or sporty, you're covered.

   Think Tank has designed this bag for both functionality and security since it comes with a security cable and lock that can be attached to a reception hall column or fence, allowing you to remove your equipment while the rest of the bag remains securely attached. Even the sturdy YKK zipper sliders accept user-supplied locks for maximum protection and peace of mind while working. Inside, movable padded dividers let you organize the bag's innards however you see fit. Your computers are stored in their own separate, lockable, zippered compartment. For even more flexibility and security, you can store your optional AI laptop case in the computer pocket.

   You have several ways to carry the bag, from its adjustable harness system and removable belt to the handy handles located on three sides. The harness features enhanced lumbar support and air mesh panels that will help keep you cool when the pack is on your back. And no need to worry about getting caught in bad weather since the bag comes with a neat rain cover that stores inside when not in use. A chest strap is also provided to help maintain balance while walking. The Airport Essentials also accepts Think Tank's optional Pro Speed Belt or Thin Skin Belt which will help with stability as well as increased load capacity.

   Your tripod can be attached to the bag with its legs in a provided exterior pocket and its head attached with a provided strap. For small accessories, the interior flap has laminated mesh pockets for everything from memory cards to snacks.

   The exterior of the bag is made from a combination of ballistic nylon, polyester, and nylon webbing, all treated to be water resistant. The interior is nylon and polyurethane with closed cell foam padded dividers. For a small bag holding this much gear, it's relatively light, at a maximum of 3.6 lbs. Think Tank backs the Airport Essentials with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.

   Doesn't look like a traditional camera backpack. The included security cable and combination lock allow you to lock the laptop case or attach immovable objects. This security cable is very effective when you need to leave your equipment for a period of time in a media room, wedding hall, hotel room or other open space.
