Think Tank Digital Holsters Make Carrying Your Camera Easier

Think Tank Digital Camera Holster 10 V 2.0

Talent, dedication, and years of improving your photography skills will all come to naught if you can’t quickly access your ready-to-shoot camera. Of course you can always walk around with more than one camera hanging from your neck. The downsides of this are that it’s uncomfortable, and cameras can easily be damaged from bumping into each other. To address these issues, photo gear manufacturers make easy-access camera bags, backpacks, complicated belt clips, and fancy leather harnesses that can make you feel more like a horse than a photographer.

What’s a photographer to do? My suggestion is to buy several holsters that can accommodate cameras with short, medium, and longer lenses. This way you can comfortably wear several holsters, one on each hip, and quickly switch between cameras as needed.

One of The Cranky Camera’s favorite camera holster, bag, case, and accessory manufactures is Think Tank Photo. Founded in 2005, their line of camera holsters feature durable lightweight materials, lids that open away from the wearer (for easier access), and “Pop Down” bottoms for use with longer lenses and attached lens hoods.  

For versatility, Think Tank Photo holsters are compatible with a wide range of belts and accessories. Thanks to the interior and exterior pockets, and included seam-sealed rain cover, these holsters are worthy replacements for the common shoulder bag.  

Key Features:

• “Pop Down” increases bag height for a lens hood or a telephoto lens

• Shoulder bag attaches to all Think Tank belts and bags with Modular Rails

• Side attachment rail to connect small Modular or Skin component to holster

• Lens hood can remain attached, reversed or in position

• Front stretch pocket for lens caps, back caps, and other items

• Removable screen protector separates your shoulder straps from your LCD

• Compatible with the Digital Holster Harness

• Inner lid pocket for SD cards or lens cloth

• Carry with the top grab-handle or the included shoulder strap

• Business card holder on top of lid

• Seam-sealed rain cover included
