An Incredible Camera Bundle for a Great Price
357107
We had a non-HD camera that we purchased 8 years ago, and we've been kicking ourselves ever since--we knew we needed to upgrade. The quality of the video from this HD camera is *amazing* in comparison. It's not Hollywood/big screen worthy, but for our family it more than meets our needs. I have only used it casually thus far, but we played with the projection a bit which our toddler got a kick out of. I can't wait to dig int to all of the features a bit more.

Also, this bundle is an incredible value! We paid the same price we would have paid for just the camera anywhere else. I love having a backup battery, the materials to protect the screen, and the camera bag to keep everything in. The tripods will come in handy. I am exceedingly pleased with this purchase.

Picked up the camera when it first came out, and over 15,000 shutter releases later (according to my EXIF photo data), I couldn't be happier with this purchase.

Ergonomics: First, the camera has enough weight to it and curves to your hand to just feel solid when you are holding it. After playing around with settings, buttons, wheels, and walking through the manual to read up on everything, I slowly became competent at getting my camera into the right setting for the shot with one hand.

Pictures: The low light performance at ISO 3200 is incredible, and combined with the 4.5FPS mode, I've nailed some awesome pics at evening football games from the stands. The pre-set color settings, and built in editing (mostly crop & straighten) definitely speeds up my post-production. The Autofocus took a while to master (center, zone, 3D), but works well now that I have the hang of it. My friends and colleagues are blown away by my shots, but that's more a result of getting some direction on composition from friends and doing lots of culling of the bad ones.

Video: Manually refocusing a video mid-shot is a pain. The contrast/brightness/white balance adjustments mid-video can get a bit odd as well. It is a bit rough, but can still produce some nice results if you have a unipod, and not a ton of motion with your subjects. For the most part, video has just been a toy, as I haven't attempted anything serious with it. My $180 Canon SD780IS does better job overall with video, but I can't put a f/1.8 on that, and play around with the focus to get a neat hollywood effect.

Lenses/Extras: The lens selection for Nikons is nice (have since picked up a 50mm f/1.8, and a 55-200mm VR to go along with the kit 18-105mm, but envy the Canon 55-250mm IS lens at its similar price point to the nikon 55-200mm VR), and the auto-focus performance on the kit 18-105mm lens is pretty fast. The SB-400 was a nice addition (lets me bounce light for indoor shots and get some good results), but using my f/1.8 without a flash has been a better low light solution, even though the color requires more retouching. In retrospect I would have gotten the D90 with the Nikkor 18-200mm VR instead as changing glass is a nuisance.

This is the best bundle available buy it hurry! Great camera, the mic is decent and a nice upgrade from the onboard mic. Back pack is great quality too! Everything you need to start off. I plan to get a steady cam rig soon too.

Best camera I've ever owned. Especially coming in such a small form factor. Most of the accessories in this bundle I don't use, so if i had to do again i'd skip this bundle

I absolutely love this camera and the bundle was much more than I anticipated.  I had one small issue with one of the items in the bundle and Focus Camera replaced it almost immediately.

I love this camera! I was torn between this one and a Canon, as they were the only 2 with 50x zoom. The manual focus button on the side was the key factor. I have a small point and shoot Canon and the choice was difficult. I believe the "extras" that came in this bundle made it well worth the price, as well as a super great camera. Add a circular polarizer and it's unbelievable! Definitely a great bundle that I would highly recommend for the hobbyist/casual photographer.

We were going to buy D5100 w/ 18-55 & 55-300 lens in Walmart for $1,026.21 w/tax, in-store delivery in 7-14 days, then we found this bundle in Amazon w/ everything we needed for our new camera for $1,069.90, delivered to our door in 5 days!!!

Every item in the bundle was tried and all work great: memory card in the camera, UV filters protecting lens, wide angle for landscape pics, wireless remote control to take family pic, fast memory card reader, nice cleaning kit, tripod was fun for the family, screen protector for LCD screen, beautiful Nikon bag, memory card holder for extra cards, good 2x telephoto lens for long distance objects.

We're still exploring camera's cool features, it'll take a while until we master all them, it's been a dream owing this camera, takes awesome pics even when is out of focus... :)
Photos in Jpeg format are very nice; in RAW format they are crispy clear (great to be manipulated in Lightroom), even though they take more space in the memory card.
I missed super-moon, but I'm waiting for next clear night to take pic of the moon w/ 55-300 and 2x telephoto lens on tripod, without UV lens, then try on couple of adjustments (found tips on youtube videos), and see how the pics will come out. It should be better than the traditional 'light bulb' pic that our old Kodak takes.

Overall, we're very happy with this purchase. D5100 is easy to use (for beginners: leave in Auto mode, camera will do the rest), feels nice (not too heavy for girls), has good grip (doesn't feel like it's going to slide off your hands), and the bundle complements the camera for a smooth and delightful experience, worth every penny invested.

Note: if you tend to misplace/lose lens' caps, don't forget to buy couple of 'leashes'.

This was such a great deal and it arrived faster than a pizza delivery. Everything in the kit us usable and it exceeded my expectations. Even the bag is pretty decent. I lot of sellers try and cram tons of stuff that is just crap into these packages, but this is not the case here. I am a beginner, but I am already starting to take great photos with this camera. Very happy with the purchase and with Beach Camera. I've attached a few sample pics that were taken within just minutes of having the camera turned on. I don't think you will find a better deal for a package with two lenses for this camera anywhere. Trust me I looked for months.

I just received this camera yesterday.  Its a gift for my husband, so I couldn't open it when he was around.  Wow  what a great bundle!  It has everything included.  Im so happy I made the decision to purchase.  It was packaged beautifully and shipped quickly!  Cant wait for him to open it on Christmas.

This is a great bundle. Lots of little accessories one might not think they need. Although no lens hoods is a bit of a downer. But all things considered Im glad I splurged on this item.

This bundle is fantastic value.  The EF-S 55-250mm F/4-5.6 IS STM lens is a huge upgrade over the telephoto zoom lens included in almost every other bundle at this price point.  Honestly, I was pretty skeptical that the bundle was mislabeled and that I I would receive a different lens all together but it's the real deal.  The camera body, kit lens, and bundled lens are all what's advertised.

However, just about every other item in the bundle is slightly different.  This is by no means a bad thing and the SD cards I received were even SanDisk Ultras so that exceeded my expectations.  You get everything shown, just different brands.  My only real complaint is that the Bower tripod I received is complete garbage.  It's extremely cheap and flimsy and I wouldn't trust it under any conditions.  Honestly, though, This bundle could have come with only the Body, Kit lens, and EF-2 55-250 STM lens and it still would have been worth it.  That telephoto zoom lens is the star of the show and a versatile and well built upgrade from the 18-55mm kit lens for any hobbyist or someone just getting started.  I looked around and I could not find a better price on the Camera kit and lens without buying used or refurbished.

I knew this bundle would be amazing. But it exceeded my expectations. The 50 is a powerhouse for portrait shots and for videos. And the 10-18 is a monster when it comes to vlogging. Especially since I have a crop sensor, which means it's ultimately a 15-27.

You cant beat the Price for this 16 Camera Setup which comes with 8 Camera's and a 2 Terabyte Hard Drive which equals 2000 Giggs. The quality is great and buying the extra camera's For Less Than $30 each is also way less than you'll pay for at a Big Box Store which they usually sell them for around $60 each..

Great advanced camera. The big ring at the base of the lens can be assigned different functions. Shooting with manual focus assigned to the rings is great! Also the viewfinder is always nice to have when you need it. Wireless connecting the camera to my smartphone has not always been stable requiring reconnecting. But when it is connected properly to your phone, you can manually adjust all camera features from the phone and initiate your shots from the phone.

This bundle specifically is wonderful! 3 batteries, a wall charger that can also be used in the car, 64 gig card that's 4K video ready, and much more. GREAT VALUE

What you basically get in this kit is the camera itself, which was already $798, plus everything you'll need to maintain and enhance the experience of having this camera, for zero cost.  This feels like the deal of the century for a new camera.  I almost paid $860 at a local store for just the camera, and it wouldn't have come with the memory card, extra batteries, carrying case, tripod, cleaning equipment, screen protectors, etc.

The equipment from Focus isn't the highest quality stuff, but, you're getting free stuff.  Plus, for what it's worth, the cleaning equipment proper is more than adequate for not just a compact camera, but for a DSLR and lenses.  I am very impressed with this kit.  I am seriously wondering how Focus can profit off this Amazon deal.  It's that good.

Very good value bundle.  The camera takes nice pictures and the accessories are great to have.  Make sure to purchase a male to male mini-USB cable to connect to your computer.  I was surprised this was not included considering you need this cable to connect to your computer.  Also, the SD card USB adapter did not work at all.  I tried it on multiple computers with no luck.

Great price, great Camera!

The price was really good compared to anything else I could find, especially with all the attachments included. I wasn't expecting amazing quality for the attachments as long as the camera itself was legitimately from canon. However after receiving it I was impressed, the backpack is pretty darn good I have to say. It will probly replace the one I'm currently using. The lenses were canon as well so no scams or fake stuff. I'd say with the exception of the backpack that the accessories that come with it are pretty cheap, but they definitely work. If you don't already have a lot of professional gear like I do,then this bundle is great for a beginner. I was upgrading from the Canon t5i, and the Canon 80d has done nothing but astonish me for what it can do without being a full frame sensor! All of the modern functions make photography even more fun. The weather proof body that canon has designed is much better than nikons in my opinion. The camera takes amazing pictures in all. I currently use it as my low light space and milky way camera. Get a good lens for this puppy and you're good to go with a camera from Canon's professional grade line.
