for that price, I think you got the small sized bag. but again, I have to ask, how did you manage to fit all that gear in your bag? I guess you didn't mean that you fit all that gear into the bag at the same time.


All at the same time lol. I'll take a photo when I get back today :).

Thanks Ray!
I'm still too cheap XD. Though how much can you get off for flashes? I was thinking whether or not I should pick up a used/new vivitar 285hv. I forget how much they sell em for.

The small bags are priced at $29.99 regularly, $14.99 sale price.
The medium size sells for $39.99 and is not on sale: http://blackphotostore.com/english/prod ... p?sku=6719

Just look at the product tag, if it's "svbg" = small, "mvbg" = medium.

On the small, I can fit my 5d /w out grip + 24-70 (reversed hood) and an 85mm 1.8

Cool. Thanks for the links. It's on sale @ $19.99 now.

I usually print out their website product page and show it to a Blacks store if they have the product in stock and the store have no problem matching their web price. Besides, the online page does not mention "web sales only" - it shows "also available at a Black's Store near you".

Anyway, I just came back from Black's @ Hillcrest Mall - Richmond Hill and there's about 4 behind the counter. You need to ask for them as it's not on display.

For $20, I'm a happy camper. A discreet and compact bag. Love it.

How the hell did you pack all that?

All I could do was D300+grip, 10-20mm, 17-50mm f2.8...and it barely closes.

Now, only the D40 + 18-200mm, 10-20mm ...

Good bag!

I just picked one up at Black's near Union Station (Royal Bank Plaza) for 16.99 + tax. It is the mvbg model and they seem to have a few in stock.

I got one the other day at Black's at the Eaton Ctr. It was the last one (army green/neutral colours) and it was also $16.99!! I loooove it! It looks more like an over-the-shoulder bag than a camera case - and there's enough room to put purse-y type things in it!!

awww. I would have wanted the army green colour.

I can't complain but I picked up one at STC last week @ $16.99. I gotta agree with Sassette76 that there is enough room to fit about a body and 2-3 small lenses.

Stopped by a blacks on the way to Niagra Falls yesterday in st.catherines and they had one in green left.

Best 18$ I ever spent; fits the d90&18-200/70-300mm/sb800 perfectly. Still space left in the front pockets for misc items.

Just got one at Blacks under the TD Centre (last one, apparently), black/khaki, medium, for $16.99.

Flimsy? I think not.

Incredible deal!

THanks for the tip.

Got one at Bayview Village (Black) for $16.99. Fairview mall only has one red one left and Bayview has 3 black/browns plus one red.

It fits the gap between my small bag and bigger bag perfectly. One body, lens, and flash is all i really need for this bag to carry.
