 Think Tank Photo Backpack for large lenses : Think Tank Photo announces the release of Airport Addicted, the first backpack designed to hold large lenses (e.g. a 400 2.8 with lens hood and a 300 2.8), as well as multiple SLR & dSLR (digital Single Lens Reflex) bodies and a laptop computer, and fit within airline dimension requirements for overhead storage compartments. To aid photographers in getting their gear through the airport and safely onto the plane, Think Tank Photo has posted a free article entitled “Fear for your gear while running through the airport.” Filled with advice from noted photojournalists, this article can be found at http://www.thinktankphoto.com/airport.

 Think Tank Backpack - Lens bag
“Airport Addicted Think Tank Photo BackPack was designed to get photographers and their gear through airports and onto the airplane quickly and all in one piece,” said Doug Murdoch, Think Tank Photo president and designer. “There are few more fear-inducing experiences for photographers than to have to check their gear at the airport. For the first time, they can carry their largest lenses, as well as multiple bodies and accessories, on their back and store it near them on the airplane.”
