The all-new Think Tank SpeedTop Crossbody bags provide photographers with faster and easier access to their camera gear. The Think Tank SpeedTop camera bags have an inventive magnetic flap for quick and quiet access to photographic equipment. You only need one hand to open the bag and you can close it safely without zippers.
Think Tank SpeedTop as a crossbody bag for street photography
The Think Tank SpeedTop Crossbody bags feel like a bag that was created from practical experience. Think Tank has clearly looked at how photographers move in the city: always on the go, often with one hand free and sometimes just a little too little time to capture a moment.
The magnetic closure responds intelligently to this. The flap clicks closed automatically as soon as you drop it and opens without resistance when you want to quickly access your camera. This makes the bag remarkably intuitive to use, especially during street photography where timing is everything.
Quick access to your camera thanks to the magnetic closure
The interior is uncluttered and well thought out. Inside there is room for a compact camera with one or two lenses, depending on the size you choose. The pockets are sturdy enough to keep your gear in place, but not so tight that you have to struggle to put something back.
Like most Think Tank products, these SpeedTop bags are also made of a durable Cordura fabric, so that they remain beautiful for years. The fabric is also coated with DWR for protection in bad weather and an included rain cover protects against heavy rain showers.
Comfortable to wear during long photo walks
What is striking during use is how little you actually have to think about the bag. It doesn't get in the way, doesn't pinch, and the flap doesn't make an exaggerated noise that draws attention. This is an unexpectedly big advantage for photographers who like to work inconspicuously. Even on longer walks, the SpeedTop remains comfortable, thanks to its crossbody design, the magnetic closure and the quick-adjust shoulder strap and belt loop offer versatile carrying options.
Which size SpeedTop best suits your camera equipment?
The Think Tank SpeedTop Crossbody series consists of different sizes, so you can choose what suits your style of photography. The smaller version is ideal for a minimalist setup, while the larger version offers a little more flexibility for those who like to take multiple lenses with them.
What they share is the same quick accessibility that makes the SpeedTop a standout crossbody bag in this segment.
Comparison with the Peak Design Everyday Sling
In use, the Think Tank SpeedTop feels different from the Peak Design Everyday Sling. While the Sling focuses on a flexible layout with adjustable compartments and a sleek zipper, the SpeedTop focuses mainly on speed and direct access. The magnetic closure makes opening and closing a little faster and quieter, which is nice for street photography.
Peak Design looks more technical and versatile; Think Tank opts for simplicity, comfort and a more intuitive workflow on the go. Which one suits you best depends mainly on your way of working.
