Caon MiniDV Camcorder Starter Kit

2007-08-28
I mainly bought this kit for the battery for my new Canon HV20 camera and thought the case would be nice. I couldn't be more pleased. The case is compact, but allows room for the camera, batteries, power adapter, tapes and cords. There is a little zip up compartment in the handle to accommodate an accessory,like a cord. This case is so much easier to transport than the big camera bag used for my analog camera. dBahr and Billy Wayne.

This is such a great product. The case fits my camera perfectly and I love that it comes with an extra battery and a tape. This is just perfect for a first time owner like myself!

If you bought the camera, you need this kit. It gives you the extras you need. You still have to buy a card for the photos.

Canon Starter Kit for ZR600

This starter kit was great. You received the larger more usable battery and mini-dv tape. Just don't forget to get a firewire too.

Great product!

Great Camera, bag, and accessories. Just wish it had come with a fire wire as well as the AV hook up.

Good Product

Useful

I am delighted with my purchase. The bag is big enough to hold two mini DVs, three different cords, an extra battery, and of course my camcorder. I need to purchase a firewire cable, but as soon as I get it, I will be able to fit it in the bag as well. From reading the reviews, I thought this bag would be quite large, but I was wrong. I am 5" 0', and this bag does not appear huge when I take it with me (it is about the size of a medium handbag). If anyone is looking for a camcorder bag for her Canon ZR modle camcorder, this bag is it because it has everything a novice camcorder user would need. It is a great deal too. If you add up the cost of a mini DV, a good camcorder bag, and a battery, you will see that this is the best option if you are looking to save money.

Good one !

The Battery is good. Though it protrudes a bit outside my zr700 and adds bit of weight, I like it. Makes the camcorder handy for my hands :-) The case is really nice. It really took everything - zr700, 2 batteries, AV cable, charger, one casette, wireless - easily and is compact and soft. The DV casette that comes with it is just a souvenir ! other two are good.

Good price

All in all, great value, but the bag could be just a little bigger for all of the accessories.

	Sony Cybershot DSCS90 4.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value. HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

PC Magazine Guide to Digital Photography

Editorial Reviews from Book News, Inc.
A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos. The handbook includes color and b&w images, a glossary, and sidebars and Web links for further technical details.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
