The only item you /must/ buy is an SD card. If you take 150 or so images in a day, you don't need an extra battery, but if you're traveling and use this to document your travels, you'd probably want an extra battery just so you can have a fresh battery when you're away from electrical power. If you use this camera around home, you shouldn't need anything else. (If you do buy an extra battery or two, you're not obligated to buy Olympus batteries). The "no name" ones are probably adequate and are inexpensive. Don't expect these "emergency" batteries to hold a charge as long as Oly batteries, though.If you're using this in a cold climate, the batteries will have to be swapped out sooner so spares are a good idea.

It should I have my camera, an extra lens, camera accessories and a camera manual book.

I believe you need a UC-E12 cable. This is the cable that is normally supplied with the camera when purchased new.

You will need to get a SD card for the camera. Preferably one with a good amount of GB

You just need to purchase an SD memory card. A carrying or protective case, extra battery (it comes with a battery already) or tripod for this camera are optional.

Camera, battery, charger, USB cable, audio/video cable and two CDs.By the way, you should get the new model P330 which has better image sensor and more features.

this is a wonderful camera, & if you are a real photo buff--I would buy the camera with one lens, & purchase another longer range than is included in this kit. 200 isn't quite far enough. The stuff with it you will probably never use. A cleaning cloth, extra charger, filters(not special),tri-pod. I hope this helps this about $100. less than I paid..but I'd still do it different if I did it again.

No, you don't necessarily need anything further, but I bought the "DMKFoto Heavy Duty Ball Head with Quick Release Plate" with it, and it gives more versatility in my shots. It also works better when you use two tripods, one on each end to support the weight of the camera as it slides.

Everything you need comes with the camera. But it comes with a 32 MB memory card. That's really small. I would recommend getting an additional memory card. The size would depend on your needs (do you record video? take alot of pictures? take big pictures? etc). I would suggest getting at least a 4 GB memory card, which can be found for under $10. It just allows you more flexibility in your options. You can look on the camera's page and see the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" section, which will have the links to other memory cards.

I bought it but never used it. You should be able to use it, most of the camera wiring are the same.

There should be a cable with USB on one end and a mini connector on the other which connects to the camera. Page 31 in the manual describes the process. I don't have the cable with me now but I'm sure it came with the camera.

If you have the option I would buy a bundle, you will get everything you need to charge your camera and start shooting the same day. The unit doesn't come with memory card or any extra items you might want.

If you have a standard camera, it comes with all you need. There is a little plate (included) that screws into your camera. Put that bad boy on your camera and just click it into the tripod head.

attachments can be purchased separately ... there is an extensive "extra" hose available. Panasonics web site lists all available attachments.

Thank you for your helpful response. I plan on going ahead and purchasing the camera.
