SANTA ROSA, CA – Photographers on the move now can have the best of backpacks and rolling hard cases.  Think Tank Photo announces the release of the Airport™ Ultralight (http://www.thinktankphoto.com/ttp_product_ArprtUltrlght.php), the first photo backpack designed to fit within hard cases, such as the Pelican 1510 Carry On Case and the Hardigg Storm Case iM2500.

This new backpack holds a full array of equipment, including one to two pro-size SLRs, multiple lenses, and accessories.
