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.

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.

If on a budget this is a must have lens for your dslr. It will pretty much set you up for any shot due to its 70-300mm (105-450mm 35mm equivalent)
but obviously if you can stretch your budget, do so. I had this lens some years ago, had to sell to pay for something else. and im looking at buying a new one again, its that good. to sum up for a smidge over £100 its a great lens

I wanted a compact case to store & carry my S700 and this is a perfect fit. Camera goes in battery compartment first with lens facing curved side panel. Pocket holds 4 batteries and a spare card. Strap is a good length and strong. I am delighted with it.

This is the natural partner for the 18-55 lens that came as kit with the body.
The lens is not actually 100% plastic as most of the people states, it is in part made by plastic, but the part that attacches to the camera body is painted alluminium, it looks and weights like plastic but is metal!
The IS is amazing, and the lens very sharp, even at 250mm... once attached to your body, the only limit is your creativity.
this is the best zoom lens around for a cheap budget if you own as EOS camera.
I have owned one of these for 18 months. In that time it has broken twice, on both occasions the lens was mounted on the camera and reasonably protected, and I am anything but an action photographer. After the most recent failure Nikon are quoting £130 to fix it, so I think I'm going to call it a day on this particular model. When it was working the image quality was good enough; that is to say it had a number of limitations (fairly widely reviewed) but in most cases images can be fixed by post processing by DX-Pro or similar. The VR kind-of-works, as someone said it's a good way of getting images of blurred sportsmen running across razor sharp grass. It is a good price mind, and perhaps I have been unlucky but it is very flimsy.

This is the first proper flash I bought for my EOS 40D and have been blown away by the quality of the images it lets me make. My previous experiences with flashguns have been pretty hopeless, totaly nuked out highlights and black backgrounds.
I wasn't expecting much from this but the e-ttl metering really does a fantastic job of determining how much flash to give each image. I took a few photos of my daughter when she was wearing a bright white jumper and thought it would be totaly overexposed. No, they turned out fine, bright but not blown out.
Anyone in the know about flash knows that on camera flash is the worst place for a flash to be positioned. However, the quality of light given by this flash really does look good. Sure, I prefer ... Read More:
