The concept behind Tamrac’s camera carrying systems was conceived in 1977. Tamrac’s founders were outdoor enthusiasts who loved nature photography. They, like many amateur and professional photographers, had a strong need for camera bags that were tough enough to offer excellent protection, yet were easy to carry and allowed fast access to camera equipment to capture spontaneous wildlife pictures.Tamrac is committed to design innovations. Several of Tamrac’s inventions are patented within the United States. Among Tamrac’s innovations are the following: Total Coverage Tops, Pop-Off™ Film Pockets, ZipDrop™ Pockets, the Lens-Bridge® support system, the LensGate® Divider System, Tuck-A-Way™ Hip Belt, Rolling Systems, QuickClip™ Tripod Attachment System, Strobe Hatch™/Lens Hatch™, M.A.S.™ Modular Accessory System, Slide Pockets™, Giant Rain Flaps, Piggy-Back Pocket™ and Tamrac’s latest innovation -- the TurboTop™ (patent pending). Information about these and other ‘Great Innovations from Tamrac’ can be found under 'The Tamrac Difference’ menu button.Tamrac is recognized throughout the world as the leading "Name Brand" manufacturer of camera cases with distribution throughout the USA, Canada, Europe & Japan.
