Lowepro Rezo 160 Shoulder Bag For Digital SLR & 1-2 Lenses - Black

from: Lowepro

March 17, 2006
initially saw the bag in one of the electrical chain stores - over priced obviously, then i saw it on good old faithful amazon. needing a decent bag for my kit, EOS 450D, i thought why not. i was somewhat sceptical about the phrase 'for digital SLR & 1-2 lenses. being a man of chance and a regular on amazon i thought why not. when it arrived i immediately placed the camera and all accessories- with space to spare- in the bag. for the price i would definately recommend it. the bag has all kinds of compartments for any other accessories you may want to carry along. it even comes with a rain-coat !! when i slung it on my shoulder i had to check it was actually there and to top it all it dont't look half bad.

Canon EOS 400D Digital SLR Camera (incl. EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens Kit)

from: Canon

September 10, 2006
I decided to get back into photography with an SLR, and did quite a lot of research. This lead me to buy this camera and lens (as well as a 70-300 zoom). This camera is a superb entry level camera, with preset picture style types such as portrait, landscape, sports etc. and a fully auto setting, so as easy to use as a point and shoot. For the more professional photographers amongst you, there are the manual setting options where you can adjust the ISO, aperture etc. and a fully manual option. The basic 18-55 lens will be fine when you are getting used to the camera, however the lenses will be the first thing you upgrade if you fall in love with photography! I recommend the USM IS range of lenses as reasonable priced good quality upgrades.

Sony Soft Case for Alpha DSLR's

from: Sony

August 22, 2006
Very Good Product, ideal if your just moving into the dSLR range, and have few accessory to transport.
Quite compact & easy to put into a larger backpack if hiking.
Only down side is that you will not be able to fit additional lenses in the case.

Canon NB-2LH Battery Pack

Its a fantastic battery, but thats all its is - a battery. It can be found elsewhere from as low as £5, so I wouldn't advise shelling out 8x to replace it.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Lens

from: Canon

April 16, 2007
plastic? yes.... but so what ?
break it (I doubt if you will) and just buy another one !!!
Fast.......YES. Noisy ??..I never noticed. Perfect for when you want a fast lens for indoor stuff and don't want to poke your efs-17-55 in peoples faces and also don't want to spoil your shots with awful flash guns.
Bargain DEFINITELY.
Just buy it and buy one for your friends too.

Canon BP-511A Battery Pack

from: Canon

January 04, 2005
I bought a spare one of these for my 5D.

It's rated at 1390 mAh and 7.4V. As it's an official Canon product it won't invalidate your warranty if that's a consideration.

These battery packs give a very high number of shots and I feel confident with two of these fully charged I can shoot all day, review photos to my heart's content and use battery draining IS lenses without worry. In fact I've only had to change batteries on one occasion and by that time I'd had enough anyway! I think they are rated to give around 800 shots.

Highly recommended.

SanDisk Extreme III SDHC 4GB Card

from: SanDisk

June 23, 2007
This is an awesome card without a doubt! But beware as mine didn't come with a 'dinky little card reader' as reading some of these reviews you might expect (i.e. previous 20MBPS version did come with case, reader & software) this confusion for me totally defeated the point of buying it for use as a fast memory stick which is expandable - doh! Regardless it is still an amazing card and the latest formula 1 edition too :) NOTE: PLAY still offer the previous version with the benefits for the same price so its a matter of how fast you wanna go ;)

SANDISK EXTREME III CF 2GB CARD

from: SanDisk

February 09, 2005
Faultless product as is the norm from Sandisk, there seems to be an issue with postage costs though there is a simple solution to this if you are a regular Amazon shopper: sign up to Prime, cost is recouped in in no time at all.
