Think Tank Airport Advantage XT Black

Fits everything I own including a 15" laptop and a couple of gripped bodies, yet still slides into the overhead bin on most flights. The handle extends smoothly and locks into place, which is a relief after dealing with wobbly ones on cheaper bags.

The wheels glide so smoothly over airport carpet that I almost forgot it was loaded down with a full kit. The extra-high capacity swallowed my two bodies and four lenses without bulging past the carry-on limit, which saved me a checked-bag fee on my last international flight.

I was pleasantly surprised how much gear this bag swallows while still squeezing into overhead bins. The padding is firm yet protective, and the zippers feel sturdy enough for regular travel.
