This 52-inch roller bag is designed to transport your stands and other awkwardly-shaped studio accessories

They make camera bags in all different shapes and sizes – but there is always one bit of equipment that just can't fit in! A studio stand comes high up the list of awkward bits of photo gear to pack... but now American bag specialists Think Tank are launching a roller bag that is specially designed to get flash stands, umbrellas and other long thin bits of studio gear from A to B.

Launched at The Photography Show, the Think Tank Stand Manager 52 is a roller bag that has an interior compartment that is 52 inches long (132mm). With internal ties, and external straps,  it is designed to accommodate awkwardly-shaped C-stands – and is also long enough even to fit in a narrow roll of background paper, sandbags, smaller modifiers and brollies.
