 Great Camera January 3, 2009

This is our first digital SLR. Takes great pictures. Works great on auto mode until we learn how to use all of the features. Can't wait to get a telephoto lens.
GREAT! December 28, 2008

 Keep Your Receipt and Box December 21, 2008

The bag is very good.
The filter is good.
But the battery, which accounts for the majority of the price, is bad. After taking less than 50 photoes, the batter indicator in my XSi turns red. Yes, I mean 50. Not 500. Because this is 'kit', the original shipping box was big. I didn't bother to keep it. Given this is shipped from Amazon.com LLC itself. I didn't expect any hassle.
Given so many good reviews, I think my item was simply a defective one. But you should be aware of such possibility and keep your receipt and box until you are sure the battery is good.
Very, Very Pleased December 20, 2008
I received the Camera case along with the Battery Pack on time and in good condition. The case was more than I expected. It was well made and was genuine Canon. It has lots of room for all kinds of goodies and lots of pockets and dividers to protect my valuable equipment. The battery was a standard, but again genuine Canon Battery Pack. The lens filter was so-so but will protect my camera lens.
All in all a great value and a great price. I am very pleased with our purchase and the service and will not hesitate to do business with this company again.
 Good value for money December 12, 2008
The one negative thing I have to say about this kit has been noted by other reviewers as well: The UV filter is cheap and tends to add lens flare to your images whenever a strong light source (particularly the sun) is within or off to the side of the image. I verified this by taking some outdoor shots, then replaced the lens with a B&W multi-coated lens (less than $30 from Amazon), which is far superior and eliminates flare.
This one issue aside, this starter kit is an excellent value. The spare battery alone normally costs about $50, and similar carrying cases can cost more than this entire kit.
The case is well-padded, with a number of internal partitions so that you have room for the camera (with the stock 18-55mm lens attached) and up to four more lenses, with a bit of space left over for your battery recharger, the spare battery, and other small items (I carry a USB SDHC card reader and an extra 8GB SDHC card as well). And this is just considering the space on the inside of the bag; the unpadded outer pockets provide space for several additional items. The bag's adjustable strap is padded also. Overall, this is a superb bag for the Rebel.
