Main problem: it is WAY too small. It has room for the camera, and pretty much nothing else. None of the stock accessories like charging cords and such fit in it, much less any add-ons you may have bought or blank DVDs. This means you'll need a second case for all your accessories. I suppose it would be ok for a day bag if all you wanted to carry was the camera, but it just doesn't cut it as a main storage bag.

Second problem: the battery is a joke. It is about half the thickness of the stock battery that comes with the DCR-DVD 505 (which itself, is two steps down from the highest capacity battery Sony offers as of 5/06). I don't even want to speculate on how quickly it would run out.

In short, this kit is useless for the current generation of cameras. Buy a separate bag (I'm about to order the Sony LCSVA5) and if you need a spare battery, get a quality one.

I was looking for a camera bag that I could take out on weekend trips, and to store the camcorder at home when it's not in use.

This bag fit my Sony DCR-DVD405 perfectly. The front pocket can hold 4 DVDs and the side pockets are great for extra batteries. The extra battery that is included will last for about 60min, making it a great backup/emergency battery.

I highly recommend this product.

I am trying to buy this pack for my new Sony DCR DVD-108. This is shown as a option on the camcorder but after further investigation I found that the battery in this pack is not compatible.

Amazon should be careful when they put a option of bundle for a incompatible product.

I have the Sony DCR-DVD505 (which I purchased from Amazon at an amazing price) and then purchased this accessory kit. The bag is small, but is good to carry the camcorder and three mini dvd discs in their cases. You can also carry the spare battery in the case. It is a very small case, but for day trips, etc. it is the perfect size. I have several cameras and this bag will hold my Sony DCR-DVD505 camcorder and my Nikon CoolPix P2, three mini dvds in their cases and my spare battery with no problem. The Nikon CoolPix P2 sits on top of the camcorder in the bag with no problem. I like this for short trips to keep the camera safe and the fact that is it small enough to place in a larger camera bag without taking up a lot of space helps for traveling on airplanes where you want to combine a few things into one bag for airline carry-on baggage.

$50 to protect a $650 investment, sounds pretty good to me. With the extra battery and a few discs, it seemed like the way to go. When it came in the mail, however, I found a few flaws. First, the disc holder can only hold four discs. Four! The case should hold at least 10 for how thick it is. Second, all of the accesories (power cords, A/V cords, battery, DVD's) barely fit. I found a way to tetris it all in, but it takes a while to fidget the camera out, not good if you're in a hurry. It does protect the camera, though, and if you're just going on a day trip, you wouldn't bring all the cords anyway. Then, it fits like a glove. The idea of a case is good, but the actual product leaves some to be desired.

If you don't want to carry around too large of a bag for your camcorder, this is the bag for you. It is a perfect fit for your camcorder and its DVD case which is included in the kit. It is also nice how the case closes making it hard for anyone nearby to reach into the case. I highly recommend this product.

This bag is perfect sized for my Sony 305 camera and was the best price anywhere.

Very good quality case and safe carrier for the camcorder. Well worth the price.

A camcorder bag, 3 blank DVD-R, an extra battery and a mini DVD soft-sided case to protect against damage and conveniently carry up to four DVDs. All these for less then the cost of just an extra battery SONY NP-FP50 / NP-FP30 Equivalent Li Ion Battery 2-Pack For Select Handycam DRC Series. I purchased this bag for my Sony DCR-DVD305 1MP DVD Handycam Camcorder with 12x Optical Zoom. The camcorder fits perfectly inside and the bag is easy to carry and made of strong sturdy materials. I can carry the extra DVD's in the included case and there is enough room to slide my Sony Cybershot DSCW100 8.1MP Digital Camera with 3 x Optical Zoom in too. Keep in mind you will not be able to carry the power cord or PC connectors with the camera in this bag, but who wants to carry those when this bundle gives you an extra battery in case your battery dies and you don't need your computer connectors until you are ready to copy or download your videos. This was the perfect investment for my Handycam.

I have the Sony DCR-DVD105 DVD Handycam Camcorder with 20x Optical Zoom. The camera is light, easy to use, and a great camera. This bag handily stores the camera and at least an extra battery. A few discs (without cases) are able to fit as well. Which, in my opinion, is a strong drawback. If there was more, or even slightly bigger pockets on the side or under the hood of the bag, it would be a lot better and easier to keep things at your finger tips. Maybe some slots for the unused discs on the inside (like a visor CD holder for your car)

But for the basic keeping of the video camera hand and within easy reach and protection, which is all you really need, this bag is wonderful.
