Think Tank Urban Approach 15 Mirrorless Backpack
Think Tank is releasing a new line of Mirrorless Mover bags
And I’m lucky enough to have one of the first ones. So I thought I’d take a walk to the park today and photograph the heck out of it and share it with you. The Urban Approach 15 Mirrorless Backpack, is part of a new line of bags specially designed for mirrorless cameras called Mirrorless Mover bags produced Think Tank.
“It is about supporting photographers doing their job. If we can design products that help photographers travel easier, take pictures faster, and organize their gear more efficiently, then we will have accomplished something beyond the bags themselves.” ~ Think Tank’s Mission Statement
Its an elegant addition to the Think Tank line. A stripped down well padded, compact backpack with leather like trim and a very clean from.
“I’m a huge fan of Think Tank bags and personally own 6 of them. They are built to last and simply don’t show wear.” ~ Marc W.

The sleek, slimed down pack is fashion worthy and boasts the same bullet proof build that Think Tank forged their reputation with.
