User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Small, plasticky, limited warranty
I got the kit because I wanted the remote and could use the bag, the warranty and the cloth.
Somewhat disillusioned because since ordering I discovered the cloth will be no more than a travel convenience, since a soft camel brush is better to use at home; the warranty will only be valid if I have someone to send the camera back to the US or Canada; and the back, contrary to the camera which is plastic but feels solid, is very, very plasticky. May well end up being more resistant than it seems, but it doesn’t inspire confidence and is very small. Ah, and just happen to have found the original (`Camedia’, but it is exactly the same thing) remote at a local used photographic equipment store for a fraction of the price.
If you are at the US or Canada, it may be worthwhile if you can use at least three items, but none of them alone is really good.
4 Stars e-300 & e500 digital camera bag
this is a wonderful bag capable of holding all my accessories
3 Stars Expensive, and the bag is poorly made.
In all, there is little to redeem the price of this kit. I only got it for the remote, and a small bag was a nice plus.
However, the bag turned out to be the least worthy part of the kit. It quickly tore around the (unnecessary) velcro on the tab. I replaced it with a bag about the same size, which cost $11 and was a little better made.
I can’t in all honesty recommend this kit.
1 Stars Accessory Kit
This bag is nice and compact. It is however a little small for the E-500 2 lens kit. The only way to completely fit everything in the bag is to have the body and the lens separate. This makes it somewhat inconvenient when you want to be able to just unpack the camera and go. I generally have to leave one of the lens at home or I have to take the time (and find a clean environment) to attach the lens to the body. Overall this is a great bag for a simple outing but I would not recommend it for anyone looking for a bag to carry everything.
