Think Tank Photo Launches Vision Line

2019.03.13

Think Tank Photo this morning released their latest series of shoulder bags for photographers. The new line of Vision bags is intended for use by professional photographers who need efficient access to gear while keeping their gear secure.

Three models comprise the Think Tank Vision series, each offering a different size and capacity. These shoulder bags have a traditional design reminiscent of the Spectral Series reviewed here yet raised to a level more suitable for professionals. Outer materials have a new refined texture yet remain of the highest quality materials. The bottom features waterproof tarpaulin while sides are coated in durable water-repellent coating on the outside and polyurethane coating below. These bags are designed to resist most weather conditions and each comes with a seam-sealed rain-cover for heavy rain.

Think Tank paid particular attention to details on these latest shoulder bags. The comfortable adjustable shoulder-strap is well-padded and there is a luggage pass-through handle to carry these on a roller suitcase. A reinforced grab handle helps move the bag around too. There are tripod attachment straps to secure a tripod at the bottom of any of these bags. A security clip keeps the main compartment closed and allows it to be opened with ease.

The main compartment closes completely with a YKK RC-Fuse abrasion-resistant zipper. The opening flag can be secured to the top flap to facilite access while working. A front compartment is also zippered and is itself divided into multiple organizing pockets. A stretch pocket on the one side provides a place to hold a water bottle.

Three bags start off the Think Tank Vision series with the Vision 10 offering space for a single DSLR and one or two lenses, the Vision 13 having space for an extra lens and the Vision 15 two more. All these bags offer space for a 10" tablet in the front pocket. The larger Vision 15 though sports an additional slot in the main compartment for a 15" laptop too.
