Think Tank Turnstyle 20 V2.0

£85/$100

The Turnstyle V2.0 is available in three sizes, the 20 being the largest. Its main compartment is sized for full-frame gear, though a taller DSLR such as a D850 is a bit of a squeeze. Up front you get a versatile pocket for storing accessories like a flashgun or various filters.

Externally the Turnstyle feels very durable, with tightly-woven nylon materials that easily cope in wet weather. This is also a comfy bag on long shoots thanks to its wide, well padded strap. Though this sits on your left shoulder, like many sling designs, the top is actually attached to the centre of the bag, making it feel slightly more stable than usual. If you need extra support, there’s a basic waist strap too.

Downsides? The internal dividers are thin and too flexible, compromising the bag’s overall rigidity. The main compartment opening is more of a slot than a flap and doesn’t afford the most unobstructed access. Finally, there are no side pouches or mounting points to carry a bottle or tripod.

Pros Comfy; compact; good accessory storage Cons Squashy form; can’t carry a tripod; awkward accessibility

We say Not a bad bag, but outclassed by the exceptional competition in test Overall score
