This kit was a decent deal when the price was $5, but I would not buy it for the new price of $15. The camera case is roomy enough for some bigger compact cameras, but the padding is minimal and probably won't protect your camera much if you drop it on to concrete. The mini-tripod works OK if your camera is very lightweight. The memory card case doesn't hold cards very securely, so I don't trust it. I have not tried the cleaning kit or screen protector.

The case in the picture looks plastic to me but in reality it is a high quality Targus case.

The Media card holder is leather and suits my needs.

The tripod is small but small might just fit the bill.

The other stuff is a bonus.

This review is from: Targus Digital TGK-RA500 Universal Digital Camera Starter Kit (Electronics)

The bag is great I can fit my camera and charger in there without any trouble though it would be nice if it had a place to put the little tripod that comes with the set. It has a belt strap in the back that I use to hold the tripod on there but it's not the best solution.

The little cleaning extras are nice but I haven't really used them much.

The one con with the kit is the tripod the joint that holds the camera on is made from some really cheap plastic and it snapped about a month after I had it and this is with very light use I was able to super glue it back together but if just that little part was made out of metal this wouldn't have been a problem.
