About this accessory
The Think Tank Backlight Sprint in Slate Black is a slim 15 litre camera backpack that weighs 1 kg and measures 23 x 44.5 x 17 cm. Camera gear sits in a rear panel compartment (21 x 42 x 14 cm inside), and it holds a standard body with one to three zooms, or a body with several primes. A body with a 300mm f/2.8 or 150-600mm lens attached will fit.
Two side pockets take a 32 oz water bottle or a tripod, and the front pocket gives 2 litres for personal items. A seam-sealed rain cover is included. Choose the Sprint over the larger Backlight 26L if you want a lighter, slimmer pack for a shorter day, and the 26L if you need a laptop sleeve.

Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
