Good, well priced toaster

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a decent low-priced toaster, since I believe any toaster irrespective of price can fail anytime; thus won't hurt as much if the money lost is low. The body is plastic and lightweight, nevertheless feels cool to the touch after use. I would recommend this toaster if you are looking for something non-fancy but works good. It's a toaster and it toasts well. Slots are large enough for bagel slices. Have been using daily since more than a month.

What's great about it: Toasts bread slices and bagels good. Perfect price.
What's not so great: Plastic lever is quite flimsy but should hold out over use. Not a deal-breaker.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nikon D7100 DSLR Camera Body: Open up to a world of finer detail with the Nikon D7100, designed without an optical low-pass filter for impeccably-detailed image and video capture. The 1.3x crop mode gives you extra reach from your lens without sacrificing the high resolution quality, and the 51-point autofocus system locks onto your subject for incredibly fast response times. Whether you're a semi-professional or a skilled photographer upgrading to a more advanced DSLR, the lightweight and compact D7100 will keep your creativity on the edge.Memory card sold separately.

Great camera. Nice upgrade from a D3100

Verified Purchase:Yes
The D7100 is about three times the price of my earlier D3100, but its a big upgrade. Pair this with a Nikkor 18-300mm lens and it will last you quite some years (unless you are bitten by the upgrade treadmill). Great camera, takes great pictures and has a hefty set of features. If you do buy a 18-300mm lens then buy the D7100 as body only and skip the one bundled with the 18-105mm.

Decent price for a 77mm UV filter; worth buying

Posted by: HarvardResearchScholar

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this 77mm UV filter along with a 77mm Neutral Density filter from the same brand. Digital SLRs really do not need a UV filter like film SLRs do. I got it as protection for my lens. The price was decent for a 77mm filter.

Snap incredible photos with this multicoated neutral-density filter that is compatible with most digital cameras with a 77mm or 72mm lens and reduces reflections and flare.

Good price; works; could be better.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am not an avid photographer but do like to use my camera gear intensively. I grabbed this filter for a Nikkor 18-300mm lens. In test shots they seemed OK for the price. For my not-so-stringent needs this ND filter is fine.

Great battery. Bought it as a backup.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought it as a backup to the one that came with the camera. The battery charge easily lasts long photoshoots. Having a second one fully charged gives that extra confidence in the event the first one dies down and there's no power outlet nearby.

What's great about it: A single charge gets me through more than a couple days of moderate shooting.

Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18–300mm f/3.5–5.6G ED VR Standard Zoom Lens: Boasting the longest reach of any NIKKOR all-in-one zoom lens, this lens delivers the equivalent of 450mm focal length, enough reach to bring the most distant action up close. This single telephoto zoom lens can keep up with a wide range of shooting situations, from wide-angle groups to ultra-high-power zoom shots.

Expensive but worth the price

Verified Purchase:Yes
The DX-format Nikkor 18-300mm is a superb upgrade from the earlier 18-55mm and 55-200mm kit lenses I had from my D3100 camera. Images are much better on this lens. And the convenience of not having to change out different lenses makes this one a great walkaround/tourist lens. Its a lil bit heavier than the 55-200mm, but its understandable: the 18-300mm is longer and the mounts are all metal. It oozes quality. I love it.

The best and most useful camera bag I have owned.
on June 22, 2013
Posted by: HarvardResearchScholar

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have owned/used a few DSLR camera bags till date. This one is the best as per my opinion. It satisfactorily fulfills the requirements of securing the camera and lenses and has more than enough space for all the average user's camera gear. Nice and secure pockets for extra batteries, filters etc. I can store a big lens such as the 18-300mm Nikon lens while attached to a D7100 inside the bag. The main compartments can be user-arranged by means of the Velcro-attachments. A very handy feature is an inbuilt rain-cover that you pull out from the bottom. One can also firmly attach a medium-sized tripod on the outside. The feature that had me floored above all was the 'Slingshot' mode. It simply revolutionizes your camera carrying experience. Look for video reviews on the internet that exhibit the bag's innards and features. I will recommend this camera bag many times over :).

Can i use it in a D5100?
Compatibility
You can certainly use it on a D5100. I use the Nikkor 18-300mm on a D7100 and my older D3100.
