Product Description includes product not included in kit December 23, 2008 I ordered this ultimate accessory kit because I needed a battery charger for my camera and this not only included a charger (per the product description, which is what I went by), but had a lot of other good accessories as well, Unfortunately, when the kit arrived, there was no charger, and my e-mail to DBROTH did not result in a telephone call, which is what I asked for as I needed the charger by the next day, but rather in an e-mail which merely told me that a charger was not included (even though one is listed in the current product description, which I printed out for proof in case they edit it online, which they should do to not mislead people). This is terrible customer service, and now I am forced to go drive more than an hour each way to look through big box stores during the middle of last minute Christmas shopping to try to find a charger that will work for me. And if I don't, I am just out of luck for my work this weekend, in addition to having to take hours out of my work schedule when I cannot afford it. There is no contact information included on the e-mail, and none here on Amazon either. I would heartily caution against doing business with DBROTH if you want what is actually included in the kit in their product description (to be fair, everything else listed in the kit did come through OK).
Mixed Bag May 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have owned this kit for a year now. Here's what I've found: I use the memory card, extra battery, and charger all the time and am very happy with them. The card reader has a cheap feel to it, but it works fine. The case is solidly built, but a tight fit. It's possible to put all these accessories in it (except the tripod), but it is very snug. The large tripod is light-weight and wobbly. I tend to use the shutter timer when using it, because on anything less than perfect footing, even pushing the shutter will jiggle the camera. That being said, it has survived a year of sometimes indelicate use. The filters are of mixed quality. Two were good, and I use them regularly. One had a defect on the edge that has showed up in a couple of pictures. The lenses are very poor quality, and I haven't used them since the first failed experiment with them. The small tripod is too flimsy to support the camera's weight reliably. It's easier and sturdier to just set the camera on a few stacked books. The cleaning kit smears the filters. I use the brush occasionally, but the cloth and solution is hopeless. In short, it was an interesting experiment for a first-time digital camera user. I now know what I want in lenses, filters, and a tripod when it comes time to buy replacements. And for the price it was an okay deal despite the problems. But be aware that this is all bare-minimum, "starter" gear.
Some useful, some spectacularly useless April 22, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Let's go through what I got and see how it stacks up on my Lumix DMC-FZ50: 1) I got a pair of Digital Innovations converter lenses - the zoom is totally useless, totally smearing the pictures no matter what zoom setting I use on the camera (and with the conversion settings on or off), and the wide angle "portholes" - as in it looks like you're looking through a porthole with a round frame around your picture, clipping the corners. If you cropped the picture it's not bad. The case will not fit this camera, it's a 10x8x2 inch case for pocket cameras. The Merkury filters seem okay at first blush. The USB-SD disk reader is useful if you don't have one already. The 1GB high speed SD card is useful - more memory is always useful. The spare battery (note: from Digital Innovations and not Panasonic) and car charger for it (actually a car and wall charger in one) are both must haves. The cleaning kit is your basic cheapie cleaning kit - same kit I could have gotten 20 years ago (and did), but it'll do. The 42-inch and tabletop tripods now give me a complete set since I have a full size one already, but only you will know if that's useful or not. So, was it worth it for $80 (with shipping)? Well, the battery is $5, the charger you figure is $10. The memory card is $8. The filters are $20. So, the answer for me is no, since the lenses are crap - ah well, caveat emptor. If you need a card reader and the tripods, then it's a wash. Just don't bother with the lenses - they're pretty close to useless, and so is the case.
Good Stuff March 1, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Everything in this pack works great for my DMC-FZ50K except for the polarizing lens. That really doesn't seem to cut the glare at all like it's supposed to. I think the only thing I wish it would have come with is a full size tripod. Great deal for the money though.
Great deal - free shipping December 14, 2007 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is an excellent package for my new camera. Arrived quickly as advertised (before my new camera arrived). Seller even e-mailed me to make sure I was happy - nice touch! All the items were new. Hightly recommend - good deal.
