I bought this to try my DSLR for Macro, but its too little for my application, so I had to return it, but seems like its a good fit for other smaller cameras, and cell phone.

This is an excellent blower. Pumps quite a good amount of air, and seems pretty durable. Worth what I paid for.

This is an ok product. Compared to the other teleconverters from Nikon, it is not that sharp. The 1.4, and 1.7 are much sharper than this. I did not see any auto-focus problems. It was tack-on in all situations. Give it plenty of light, it performs, but in low light situations, this struggles to perform in terms of sharpness.

Good Addition

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice addition to make my 70-200 be 119 - 340 mm. It is sharp compared to the 20e iii version. I did not see any loss of auto-focus. There is a compromise of 1.5 stops of light, but still it is worth it.

Sturdy, and spacious. I brought this for my DSLR and lenses instead of drones, but it worked for me. Its bit bulky, but I felt this is much more reliable than some of the other ones I had in the past.

Capture the perfect shot with this Platinum PT-MC400VND77 variable neutral density lens filter, which reduces incoming light from 1 to 8.6 f-stops to enable use of different shutter speeds and wide apertures in bright light for ideal photos and videos.

I did not like this because of it being greasy, and I felt this was going to smear it on to my lens, so had to return it the next day.

This umbrella has two options, it can be used as a reflector, and also do a shoot through. Material seem to be of good quality. Not a big one in terms of size, but does the job.

I purchased three of this to go with my light stand. This haven't disappointed me so far. The built is pretty solid to hold the umbrella and the flash steady.

Can you use this mount without an umbrella? I'm needing for my Insignia External Flash only. Also, will it fit my Insignia External Flash, some of the reviews stated that the shoe mount didn't fit all flashes, as it's the same brand I'm assuming it does.

Yes, the umbrella insert is optional.

Enhance your camera with this 2-pack of Nikon D7200 lenses. It has a 70-300mm zoom to capture faraway subjects in detail, and it provides excellent optics for taking crisp, clear and highly detailed photos at sporting events and concerts. Enjoy an almost-silent autofocus with the pulse motor of these Nikon D7200 lenses.Memory card sold separately.
 

This is a good deal. But only concern is non VR 70-300 lens. Two questions: 1. Can I take crystal clear scenic beauty with this lens ? 2. What are the extra features we will miss over here due to non-VR?

You can take sharp images with this lens if your camera is on a tripod. Or, if the shutter speed is set to a higher number, i.e. if your lens is at 300mm, the recommended shutter speed is 600 or above, provided there is enough light.

Are the pulse motor lens compatible with other older Nikon camera (D-5100), and are older lens compatible with the D-7200 camera?

All Nikon cameras 7000 and above which includes the 7200 can take any lens ever made by Nikon, because they have built in motor. The AFP lenses will not work on older cameras.

Can anyone tell me what size filters these lenses that come in the package kit take? I have an older Nikon D3200 that uses 52mm filters. Just curious about whether I'll be able to use those or whether these lenses that come with the D7200 use a diff size?

The filter thread size is always listed on the lens. I believe the 18-55 takes 55mm filter, and the 70-300 takes 58mm filter.

would this be a good package for someone to start with in photography? wife wanting to start taking pics and have no clue what to start her with.

Yes, it is a very good camera. But, I do not recommend the 70-300 lens. Talk to bestbuy they should have this camera with an 18-140mm lens for the same price. Get that and it should do it.

Is this deal good until Cyber Monday? Thanks.

Prices are good, but the 70-300 lens without vibration reduction is useless. I recommend going with an 18-140 lens instead of these two lens kit.
