Think Tank Releases Largest Rolling Photography Case Ever

Think Tank has announced the availability of the Production Manager 50, an enormous bag designed to hold an immense amount of gear, including lighting equipment and large light modifiers. Think Tank says that the large bag will allow one photographer to move what used to take one or two assistants. If you’re wondering just how big, its exterior dimensions come in at 17.3” W x 53.1” H x 12.6” D (44 x 135 x 32 cm), it’s interior dimensions at 15.6” W x 49.2” H x 10” D (39.5 x 125 x 25 cm) and it weighs between  20.7 – 29.8 lbs (9.4 – 13.5 kg), depending on how it is arranged (empty). 

This large rolling bag features stabilizing, wide-set, shock-absorbing wheels that roll smoothly and hold up under the toughest conditions, the ability to lock the main compartment and secure the bag with the included lock and cable, and a fully customizable interior with dividers to protect small and large lighting equipment including c-stands and large modifiers.
