Good morning everyone.

I would like to know if anyone has had or currently own's this bag/backpack? I would like to know your thoughts and/or review of this bag.

I have seen it for only 39 dollars and it can hold a 7D with 100-400 and A 40D with 17-40mm attached facing each other. I know this as the fella in the store and I tested it with his gear in the store which is the same gear I currently own. It also has room for my 70-200 f4 and many other accessories.

My only concern is it is only 39 dollars?

Thanks in advance.

Please, someone throw me a bone here. :)

Must be a real piece of crap I guess?

Is Amvona still selling photo stuff? They seem to have switched to some kind of Tech blog. I used to watch their Deal of the Day and purchased a couple of backdrops.

amvona is out of the photo selling market and is officially a tech blog. zzzzzzzzz

i bought one of their softboxes on a DOTD and wish i would have known they were going to stop selling stuff as I would have bought another.

Ok,

I just picked up the bag. It was only 39 dollars and I am going to post pictures of it tonight.
It actually fits my 7d with 100-400 attached, 40 d with 17-40 attached facing each other and
there is still room for my 70-200 F4, 430 EX speed light and two more holes for lenses!!!

The Shoulder straps seem solid (stiching included) and the only thing I can really find wrong with it is that it is an ugly silver color and does not look like a camera bag at all?

Strange. It will probably fall apart in two weeks but at least the guy in the store said he would exchange it for full refund/replacement if it did.
