Earlier this week, Gura Gear’s acquisition of Tamrac closed its final chapter when the camera bag manufacturer announced the G-Elite series. While the merging of the two entities might be complete, it’s been far from smooth sailing.

In September of this year, Gura Gear filed a lawsuit claiming Peak Design’s new Everyday Messenger bag, funded on Kickstarter and designed with the help of photographer Trey Ratcliff, infringes on a number of patents held by Gura Gear.

Gura Gear is Gone; Say Hello To Tamrac G-Elite

Whenever in need of a new travel camera bag, Gura Gear is one of the brands I check out. I’ve almost bought the Bataflae a bunch of times, but due to lack of availability in my area, I’ve opted for other models thinking I’ll get one next time.

Looks like I’ve waited too long, though, and will now never own a Gura Gear Bataflae bag. Luckily the company isn’t going under; it’s just merging with Tamrac and dropping its name.

Despite this move, I believe we will continue to see the same high-quality bags we’ve come to expect from the company, especially since it was Gura Gear that purchased Tamrac and not the other way round.

But if that’s the case, why does it seem like Tamrac took over Gura Gear?
