This is a pretty decent collection of stuff. I bought it on behalf of our local town museum that has just started an oral/video history project and is on a tight budget. The SR11 took a pretty big bite so there wasn't a lot left over for extras.

Now understand that most of the package is aftermarket product, not "Sony" but not bad either.

I was a bit incensed at first when I plugged in the battery after charging it with the supplied charger and got a "cannot use this battery" message from the camera. Well, turns out that it isn't designed to have the same contacts as the Sony batteries do(but it does snap in place OK) and has a jumper wire and port that bridges the battery output to the DC input of the camera, a fact that I missed when I skimmed over the instructions. I subsequently connected it properly with the jumper and the camera worked just fine. There is also a second port on the back of the battery that can be connected to the Sony AC Adapter to charge the battery in place. I can't speak to the issue of battery life yet because I'm only a day into it.

I felt bad about prematurely sending a "Howler" to the vendor, but also felt it important to point the battery situation out to both potential buyers and existing buyers that might have suffered the same confusion that I did. It really is a decent deal and I did receive the merchandise in good condition and on time.

The product is absolutely wrong for you if you are buying it for Sony HDR SR10. The product's battery doesn't work with the camera. It doesn't also charge in parallel to the camera battery. There is only one adaptor for the entire set of lenses and the filter lenses don't work with the camera.

The tripod worked well with the camera. I haven't tried a lot of other accessories especially the car charger, but do not hava high hopes for that.

I did get a good service from the seller but am very very unsatisfied with the product.

For the money its worth it, "on the other hand you may not use all of them that are packed in this". So you may want to take a step back and buy only the things that you want to buy, also if you are ordering this after buying a camcorder, then wait for your camcorder to arrive, you get a sony's 15% discount coupon along with it.

Got this package from this vendor at Amazon. All items arived new in original packaging.

The extra battery works for my HDR-SR11; you need to connect the tiny cable that comes with it from the battery to the camera power port.

The only part missing was the one showing the Euro adapter for electricity shown on the image here.

This package has a lot in it and may be a good value for many. However, neither the battery nor the lens filters fit the new Sony SR10 camcorder as stated in the ads.

Shipment was in time.. battery does not work for sony hdr sr12 rest is ok

The product arrived on time. The tripod was missing a part, but a call to the company resulted in a replacement being shipped right away. The package contains all sorts of goodies. I ams sure that I can get better quality stuff, but for what I am using it for, this is great!

You get a lot of stuff for your money. The problem is that much of what you are getting you will never use. I new this before purchasing, but when I added up the cost of what I knew I would use, it already reached the purchase price, so the way I looked at it, the rest was a "freeby".

This is a great collection of items for a starter and specifically the tripod is great (though a piece broke out because I loosened it too much, within 5 minutes of use).

BUT the battery doesn't work for my hd sr-11! this was the main reason I bought this particular pack and I can't even use it. If I didn't like the other stuff so much I'd try and return it, but this is just a shame.

The overall package is great value. Impressed with the battery, tripoid, carrying cases, and lot of other products included in the package.

I am still trying to figure out the best way to use the lens. The images become hazzy when I zoom in all the way and it has a tunnel vision when I zoom out all the way. I am trying to find the best way to use it for Sony HDR-SR12
