Review on Think Tank Photo Airport Accelerator Backpack Black by Ashwin Drollinger

I purchased this backback for a trip to Minnesota to photograph black bears. I had a ton of gear to carry so my camera roller just wouldn't hold it all so I started shopping for a second bag to use a carry on for the plane. The Think Tank Airport Accelerator fit the bill perfectly. The bag is roomy with lots of dividers to customize it anyway you might need. It could hold my Nikon 600mm VR lens but I decided to put that lens in my roller (since it has wheels) and pack my camera bodies, extra lenses and other items in the Think Tank. It held my 15.6" laptop and 8" tablet easily. I weighed it on a very accurate scale and I was hauling 29 lbs. of gear in it. The shoulder straps are comfortable and well padded. After hauling it around 2 airports for my connections it wasn't too bad. I noticed that the tripod straps weren't included when the bag was delivered so I contacted Think Tank Customer service in they were in my mail box 4 days later.that's what I call customer service. It fits in the over head bins of larger planes without any issues. On the smaller commuter planes like a CRJ-200 I just took out my laptop and tablet and it fit into the overhead with a little wiggling. I've taken it on 2 different week long trips backed to the max and getting ready for a 3rd trip with it and so far I'm impressed with the bag in every way. If I had to find any cons with it, the cable lock that comes attached with the bag can only lock one compartment, either the main camera area or the laptop section, not both. Since I don't plan to check it, I don't have a problem with that. I did pick up a decent TSA lock and put it inside the bag just in case. Again, just thought I'd let others know about this one small thing.
