Just received my brand new ThinkTank Airport Security. I debated long and hard about whether to get this or the Airport Int'l. Boy, I'm glad I got this one as it turns out I need every drop of space. You can read my gear list to see what's in it, but that doesn't include flash battery packs, AA's, extra batteries, chargers, etc. Here's some poor iPhone photos of it!

Think Tank Airport Security V2.0 Photo Gear


3 Bodies, 7 lenses, 2 flashes and a Lastolite softbox (the blue bag) IN the case. As I continue to grow a little more, the softbox will be carried separately.

Likes about the bag:
1. Size
2. Wheels and may I point out that they are rollerblade wheels so readily and inexpensively replaceable
3. Plenty of dividers, but not enough smaller dividers. A lot of large ones, though
4. Durability. I think all of their bags are made really well
5. Lots of compartments. Great for all those little items that you need to store.
6. Inside flap is full of CLEAR compartments. Small thing, but really important
7. ALso holds a tripod on the side. Really convenient
8. Great safety features. Locks on the zippers and another locking cable

Dislikes about the bag:
1. Size
2. Heavy when filled
3. Pricey, although well worth it in my opinion. (Why can we spend $$$$$ on equipment but don't want to spend $ on our bags!?)
4. Not enough smaller dividers in my opinion

This Tupperware box has dividers and a tray. It holds cables, tools spare batteries, and other small miscellaneous bits and pieces that I can't do without.
The lid flap has loads of storage space for cables, CF cards, notebook, business cards, grey card, remote release, etc., etc., etc.

I got my new camera case the other day - it's a Think Tank Airport Security roller case. I think it's going to do the job very well for a long time to come!
