Nice package deal

Written By John H, Birmingham, AL on Tuesday, January 17, 2012
 
I reviewed my D5100 separately. But, the starter kit and DVD were a great deal. I bought the D5100 for some specific features, and while I do not "need" the HD recording and some of the on-camera special effects the DVD showed them clearly and based on this I bet I'll use them now. Nothing beats live (video or in-person) training to show you things you did not know you needed to know (yeah, I read up on what I think I want...). The bag is a great starter bag, and should last me a long time. It's great quality, has enough pockets, the dividers are secured by Velcro so you can configure as you need. With the kit lens (18-55) attached, there is still room for 1 or 2 other lenses (depending on size of course), and a battery, strap, etc.
Pros:
DVD: Easy to use, sections are not overly long but show how to use the features. Bag: Perfect size for most as a starter. Quality seems to be great, and enough flexibility with inside dividers for most people.
Cons:
DVD: None that I can think of. I personally prefer a YouTube video so the $$ in manufacturing the DVD may instead be used in keeping the content current, but that's a minor gripe. I'll watch the DVD once and probably not again. But the content is great. Bag: well, it does not have a built-in rain fly like a Lowepro, but it's not $150 either! I stick a few large ziplocks in the bottom of the front pocket for emergencies. I really can't think of any cons with this package.

The camera bag is really good quality and just the right size. The Nikon School DVD is a great introduction to the new camera. Saved hours reading through the manual.

Well-Built, Solid Value

Written By RichR, Huntingtown, MD on Sunday, May 15, 2011
 
Well buit, solidly constructed bag with features and fit ideal for protecting your
your D3000/5000/7000 series camera. Enough extra room to safely transport
my 18-200mm lens in addition to a comparably sized lens attached to the
camera body. Pockets logically designed and positioned to keep my
accessories well organized and easily accessible. DVD provided a more in-
depth tutorial of my Nikon 3100 that was found within my camera software, and
is great for beginning through intermediate photography enthusiasts.
