I had a Peak Design Messenger 13 that was terrific, with one major flaw. It would not stand up when loading or unloading. Frustrating. I bought this Vision 15, and it stands up! Perfectly, and very stable. Love it. I have a Sony A6600 Mirrorless setup, and find it allows the perfect balance of laptop, camera gear, and other travel stuff to carry me on many overseas trips. It is obvious a photographer on the go had a strong say in the feature set. Thanks for making a great bag.

This bag far exceeds my initial thoughts, fitting way more than I had originally planned. Built tough and a perfect companion on any roller type bag to include those few extra lenses, flashes, and even grip gear.

I appreciate the thinner profile and efficient design of this messenger bag, and only was willing to purchase it due to the addition of a zipper to it's main compartment--desirable not only for security, but for the ability to seal the compartment with canisters of silica gel enclosed for purposes of mold minimization, as well as in aiding the gradual warming up or cooling down from one temperature extreme to another. Regarding its design and layout, with older generation shoulder bags such as my LowePro Magnum, carrying a similar amount of equipment put a number of lenses and items out farther from my body, widening my profile, but also putting greater strain on my spine over a long haul. I greatly prefer the slightly longer, slimmer design of this bag. Two small factors you may wish to consider with this bag: 1. Pet hair adheres quite strongly to the outer material, unlike the slipperier materials evident in, say, the Think Tank Photo Storyteller series (of which I own the Storyteller 8 and 10). 2. I ordered the Dark Olive, but actually received (and kept) the Graphite, as I was persuaded by my wife that the Graphite actually looked the more professional of the two. I found that online images of both colors make them very hard to differentiate. This has quickly become my go-to bag for mixing business with pleasure and traveling relatively light.

I used to use a backpack to carry my gear, unfortunately the backpacks are heavy and are designed for hiking and not for everyday use in a business environment. I knew I had to simplify my gear for lighter weight and for something I can use on a day to day basis for work and so I decided I needed a messenger bag. After reading and watching reviews and comparing prices. I found the Think Tank Vision 15 was perfect for me. I know everyone say not one bag is perfect but in this case the Vision 15 is. The reasons why I chose the Vision 15 is I can carry a 15.6" laptop with plenty room to spare, a Wacom Intuos Pro small tablet, a Canon EOS R Mirrorless body with a L-Bracket attached and 3 lenses. I was also impressed with the simple design and how light weight it is. The Think Tank Vision 15 is clean and professional messenger bag and I am so glad I purchased it. I highly recommend this product. Thanks Think Tank for making a great product.
