Tip Of The Week A magic photo bag that is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. I have been faced with a travel dilemma for some time now. I live in a smallish city that often requires me to take smaller regional jets with limited overhead bin space to get where I need to go. That's a problem because I travel with my photo gear, business essentials, and my carry-on bag with my clothes. All that baggage makes me look like a sherpa loaded down to climb some great mountain. This is not a good look for me by the way. Enter the Airport Essentials photo bag, from ThinkTank. It checks all the boxes that I need in a bag, and the best part is that it's magically bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.
