Think Tank Rollers Carry-On Camera Bags
Think Tank Rollers Carry-On Camera Bags: Here at Think Tank Photo, our flagship line for products are our rollers. We have three different models in our roller series: the Airport Airstream, the Airport International, and the Airport Security. As the name implies with the two larger bags, the International is designed as an international carry-on bag, the Airport Security will work for domestic carry-on purposes as well. These three bags share a lot of features in common, which I’ll briefly touch bases with. On each of the bags, they’re designed with three TSA-approved locks to give you added security to the bags. When you’re operating the bag and you want to secure the zippers on the bags, the zipper pulls will come in, drop into place, and secure into the TSA-approved lock to be able to secure the contents of your bag. Easy to open up, easy to access, but easy to use at the airport as a TSA-approved lock. We also have a unique feature on the back. Where you don’t want to have your roller roll away on you when you’re not looking, they all have an integrated lock and cable, again with a TSA lock. So whether you just need to temporarily secure this to a location when you’re at an airport or waiting to catch a bus, this cable does a really good job of helping to keep essentially the honest people honest. We also have, integrated into the inside, a third cable, inside one of the front compartments. That third cable is designed to be able to secure a laptop to the bag as well. The bags are also designed with a unique feature relevant to the handles. The handles themselves easily extend up and down on the bag, but we use a multiple stage handle. The advantage on a multiple stage handle instead of a two stage handle is it takes up less space on the interior of the bag, the result being you can carry more gear. Many bags are designed to accommodate the handle with a false bottom that continues through the entire bag, utilizing valuable storage space. This particular case, you’ll find that when you open up our bags, and you look at our dividers, they’re designed such that you can carry camera with lens attached, individual lens in these adjustable compartments, and because of the way that the handle is designed, we have deeper compartments on the sides and the bottoms so that you can carry pro bodies without a problem. If you want to transport a laptop with the rollers, we have elastic pockets in the front where you can drop a laptop into place, whether you have it in one of our artificial intelligences laptop cases or your own skin case for a laptop. Or we sell, as an accessory, a replaceable set of dividers. These dividers remove out; we drop in another set of dividers that are two inches lower in height that allows you to then take your laptop, put it in place over the existing equipment, and seal the bag up and you’re ready to go with camera gear and laptop in place. We also, on the outside of the bag, feature some good accessibility on the bag. We’ve got a handle on the top to be able to grab the bag, we have a handle on the side, we have a handle on the bottom. So when you want to take the bag, take it and put it up into the carry-on position and carry on the airport, you’ve got multiple grab points on the bag. We’re also set up with some ideas of really trying to maximize the stability of the bags. We have feet which are spaced as far apart for maximum stability, wheels to the maximum outside corners of the bag for maximum stability, and looking at the bags, we recognized that bags have moving parts and moving parts will wear out. So, all of our handles are replaceable. Our wheels are replaceable. They’re bolted on instead of riveted on. So, if and when you do get to the point where you wear out one of the moving parts, you don’t have to get a new bag. Just contact us, and we can provide you with replacement handles and replacement wheels. We’re finding out these bags work out extremely well both for domestic travelers and international travelers, and again, continuing with the theme of Think Tank Photo, the design and the presentation is very low-key so when you’re carrying your gear, whether it’s for domestic use, leaving Las Vegas, or international use, flying into Tokyo, people will not recognize the fact that you’re carrying 10, 20, or even 50,000 dollars worth of camera gear at one time.
