This remastered version looks stunning! This is one of my favorite games with lots of drama, emotion, and frightening experiences. The multi-player is also a fantastic change of pace when compared to the many shooters out there. I highly recommend this to anyone that enjoys this genre.

Fantastic camera & features! Great image quality
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: ARea
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this camera for a multitude of reasons. I opted for the video creator kit specifically for a new venture with my business and doing some vlogging, product review videos, and various other projects. I was upgrading my system from a much older Canon DSLR. This camera has very fast AF which was a must for me. On top of that, the image processing chip and image sensor itself is fantastic! This camera in combination with great lenses is able to provide some of the nicest images you will see from DSLRs on the market. It certainly is not a top-end camera but it provides images that can rival them. There are certainly a few things I do not like but not enough for me to knock off stars. The menu selection wheel is a bit cumbersome but with some getting used to, it simply is not that big of a deal to me. I can see what the Canon engineers were trying to do but you can essentially do the same things by simply using the touch screen which I prefer anyway. Overall this camera is a gem and at a great price point. You can spend a lot less but not get a body that is as sturdy or reliable. The power zoom accessory takes some getting used to though. It is basically included for free in this combo and it worth trying. It adds some smooth zooming for video which is great. Again, practice with it and spend some time perfecting it and I think you will like it.

With an STM (stepping motor) and focus mechanism, this Canon EF-S 9519B002 zoom lens allows you to record ultrasharp videos or capture crisp photos using your compatible Canon camera. The UD lens element helps you take highly realistic images.

Great image quality for the price
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: ARea
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is certainly not going to give you the highest quality images but it does a fine job from what I have been able to see thus far. I primarily purchased this lens for a VLOG setup (handheld Canon 80D DSLR). It is not a fast lens (aperture) but the IS helps give you some wiggle room in low light. It has fantastic AF though and that is great with the AF tracking on the 80D. I would highly recommend you purchase the lens hood as well to help shield the lens from too much lens flare. If you are planning on shooting expansive and super detailed landscape imagery then this is not the lens for you. If you are planning on doing some basic photography or videography (family, vlogging, snap shots, etc.) then this is a great lens and great price point for better than average image quality.

Does its job better than most similar products
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: ARea
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is certainly one of the better products out there like this. I have tried some of the cheaper alternatives found on Amazon but I opted to get this one instead for my new DSLR (Canon 80D). I am glad I did. This has a much sturdier base and yet is still easy to position where you need it. I am not too thrilled with the ball head though which is why I knocked off 1 star. You really need to tighten it in order for it to not shift. Also, if you spread the feet out too far you will get a slow shift or slip depending on the surface you are using. If you get the weight balance right though and make sure the ball head does not shift, you're camera will be fine. I am definitely concerned though if over time the tension and reliability of the articulating pieces will hold up. It would be hard to see a $1.5k camera come crashing down because of a $60 piece of equipment that failed.

Always fun movies to enjoy!

I honestly was not sure if I had watched the previous movie with Winter Soldier but it did not seem to matter much since this movie did a good job of recapping and building the plot and characters throughout the movie. I was not disappointed and would certainly watch it again just for entertainment value alone!

Good value and functional

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this with the hope to have an area cooler than my garage for various products that I needed between 55-60*. Unfortunately the thermostat only allows it so that the minimum temp is low 50s. It works well though so I gave it a higher rating. I did knock off one star for not having a better thermostat. I cannot complain that much though for something this inexpensive.

Great basic card

Verified Purchase:Yes
For a Class 1 card, this is a great product and value (when on sale). I was not planning on doing a lot of HD video recording with this card which is why purchasing a Class 1 card was sufficient. If you want to do HD recording in long lengths, I would highly recommend a minimum Class 3 card for that.

Store plenty of media files with this 32GB Samsung EVO Plus microSD card. It saves up to 16 hours of Full HD footage captured with your action camera or smartphone, and it’s resistant to water, shock and extreme temperatures to keep your data protected. This Class 10 Samsung EVO Plus microSD card comes with an SD adapter to fit other devices.
 

Is this card compatible with an old Samsung Galaxy 2 tablet?

Does your device accept an microSD card? If it does, then it should work just fine. Also remember that Best Buy has an excellent return policy if for some reason it does not accept the card.

Enhance your audio setup with this Klipsch Reference R-20B soundbar, which features two 3/4" textile-dome tweeters and four 3" polypropylene midrange drivers for rich sound. Bluetooth technology enables easy wireless connectivity.
 

Whats the difference between this and the R10B? The only thing I can see is the 8" subwoofer vs a 10" subwoofer. Thanks

The larger subwoofer is the difference and the 10" is MUCH better, louder, and crisper.

Hi, I have this system and I was wondering if I can add to it. For example more power, more speakers in order to make the T.V. sound even louder in the room. If so, any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you. :)

No. You cannot add onto this system. I believe one of their newer models allow for adding onto it. This system is sufficient for most rooms in my opinion. It is loud, crisp, and rumbles with the best of them. It would be nice to have additional satellite speakers but it was not a deal breaker for me.

can you watch live tv with this stick

It is possible but the basic functionality of the FireStick does not allow (from what I have experienced). There are ways that you can improve the functionality of the firestick and get additional apps to accomplish your goal.

with the amazon fire tv stick can I get HBO and Showtime, HGTV and other programs? I have two TV's do I need a fire stick for each tv?

Yes, you can pay extra for subscriptions to programming from HBO, Showtime, etc. You would also need a firestick for each tv but your subscriptions would be available to each one.
