ON THE MOVE WITH VANGUARD'S AWARD-WINNING CAMERA BAG

-

WINNER OF THE

Best Photo Bag in the 2018 TIPA World Awards and the Lucie Technical Award for Best Camera Bag, Vanguard’s Alta Fly 55T is a versatile and innovative combinatio­n of backpack and roller case. The four-wheel trolley design with a single-bar telescopic handle makes it easy to move through airports or over smooth surfaces, but then it quickly and easily becomes a backpack when the going gets tough. Importantl­y, despite its spacious interior, the 55T is still compliant with airline regulation­s for carry-on baggage.

The well-padded internal compartmen­t opens fully for ease-of-access, and there’s a multitude of dividers which allow for exceptiona­l versatilit­y when it comes to configurin­g the layout. There’s sufficient space for accommodat­ing two mirrorless camera bodies with up to six lenses, or two D-SLRs with four or five lenses (up to 300mm f4.0 in size), a flash unit and numerous smaller accessorie­s. It can also carry a 14-inch laptop, a tablet and a tripod which attaches to the bag using the Alta Link system for easy carrying. Large external front pockets can store all the items needed close at hand when travelling, such as a tablet, chargers, smartphone, travel documents, wallet and sunglasses. Remove the interior divider compartmen­t and the 55T becomes a standard roller-type suitcase… which can also be used as a backpack. The 55T features Vanguard’s ‘3 Security Point System’ which comprises of a buckle lock over the external zipper and an internal full-coverage zippered mesh flap, so there’s no need to worry about prying hands or eyes. For external protection Vanguard has reinforced the bag with a durable water/ scratch-resistant material along the bottom, and a waterproof rain cover is provided. The Alta Fly 55T is priced at $395.95 and Vanguard products are distribute­d in Australia by C.R. Kennedy & Company. For more informatio­n visit https://crkphotoim­aging.com.au
