Think Tank Photo Releases Lightweight TurnStyle Sling Camera Bags
New Bags Are Ideal for dSLR and Mirrorless Systems
SANTA ROSA, Calif. -- Think Tank Photo has announced the release of a new sling camera bag collection, the TurnStyle. Lightweight with easy access, the three TurnStyle models are ideal for dSLRs and mirrorless systems. Their soft, body-conforming shape means all-day comfort and their tough water-resistant fabrics offer lasting protection.
Easy rotation gives photographers fast access to their gear, including a zippered tablet pocket on all three sizes. These hybrid bags can we be worn as a shoulder sling bag or as a belt pack for increased versatility and comfort.
The fully customizable interior can be arranged for a dSLR with a 70-200mm f2.8 or a small mirrorless system. They hold real appeal for urban photographers who are upgrading their systems and need a bag to carry an extra lens or two. Women will love the light weight with a large carrying capacity in even the small and medium sizes. Delivering the perfect balance of form and function, TurnStyle bags have it all: comfort, versatility, style and rapid access.
