The Retrospective series is comprised of four shoulder bags and two lens changer bags. Created for the professional photographer that wants to blend in with the crowd and remain inconspicuous in any situation.

Features:

	The exterior of each Retrospective shoulder bag is purposefully simple, allowing photographers to inconspicuously blend into their shooting environment.
	All the shoulder bags in the Retrospective series are available in two colors, pinestone or black. Pictured here are the Retrospective 20 in pinestone and the Retrospective Lens Changer 2 in black.
	The Retrospective Lens Changer 3 has three separated lens compartments for rapid access and easier storage. Each compartment can accommodate a 70-200 f2.8 with its lens hood reversed. Shown here (left to right) is a 17-40 f4 with hood in position, a 70-200 f2.8 with hood reversed and a a 24-70 f2.8 with hood in position.
	Opening the zippered pocket on the back of the Retrospective Lens Changer 2 and Retrospective Lens Changer 3 (shown) reveals a built-in organizer for pens, spare batteries, memory cards and other sundries.
	A small accessory pocket with a hook-and-loop enclosure is located on the front of one of the lens compartments. This a convenient place for lens caps, a cleaning cloth, or a Pixel Pocket Rocket memory card wallet.
	A carrying handle is conveniently placed at the top of the Retrospective Lens Changer 2 and Retrospective Lens Changer 3 so you can easily grab the bag when you're ready to go.
	The seam-sealed rain cover for the Retrospective Lens Changer 2 and Retrospective Lens Changer 3 are specially designed to keep the integrated shoulder strap exposed while protecting your valuable photo gear from the elements.
	A fully adjustable, canvas strap is integrated into each Retrospective bag. For extra comfort, a breathable cushioned pad slides along the strap for optimum positioning. Sections of non-slip material on the pad helps keep the entire strap on your shoulder.
	The "sound silencers" underneath the main flap are used to suppress the loud tearing sound hook-and-loop makes while opening and closing the bag. Simply release the sound silencer panels and cover the hook-and-loop strips to prevent the hook-and-loop from contacting. A clear business card pocket, for identification and spare cards, is also located under the main flap.
	Hook-and-loop panels securely fastens the main flap down, keeping valuable photo equipment hidden from view. (Retrospective 30 is shown here)

Overall Product Rating:

Awesome Bag.

Since getting this bag I find going out to shoot in the city much less obtrusive. The bag uses very tough fabric, is very well constructed and is a little heavy as a consequence, but not enough to complain about. The lens pouches are very roomy, especially for small primes, but OK for most 'L' lenses. If ThinkTank were to make a similar style top-loader I would buy it in a flash.

I tried several bags before I've found this one. Everything what you can find about it is true. Great, strong and comfortable for whole day carrying. Simple the best...

I have had this bag for a few years now, and I must say, it is still one of my favourites. If you do frequent lens changes, there is no aspect to the design I would change.
