Canon EOS 90D Digital SLR Camera Bundle (Body Only) with Professional Accessory Bundle (14 Items)

UPDATE: I ended up returning this kit because the camera turned out to have two lines of dead pixels on the image sensor and it took Amazon two weeks to return my money after they received it back.Firstly, I bought a "used" version of this kit - I think it must have been a return. However, it came completely packaged as new and I couldn't tell that the camera had even been used except that I found "Chris's Macbook" in the wifi settings - no big deal. The EOS 90D itself is a great camera for photo and video enthusiasts and professionals alike with plenty of features and up-to-date technology. I bought the body only, because I have EF and EF-S mount lenses from my other Canon camera. However, after I ordered this, I read and watched a couple YouTube videos where professionals recommended updating lenses because the 32.5 megapixel sensor in the 90D out performs some older lenses (especially older kit lenses). That's putting in the simplest terms; I'm not a professional or an expert, so do your research and do what's best for you. I ended up purchasing two new lenses that got high recommendations from several sources.As for the rest of the kit here, it's what one might expect from this sort of offering. Low budget, and fair quality equipment. The back pack and the hand strap are made from low quality materials - use at your own risk. The video tripod is very light and flimsy - I don't think it's up to the task of supporting a camera like the 90D in any environment. The monopod is OK - very light and I think it could be useful, but the quality of the materials leads me to think it might not last long under rigorous use. All of these accessories are made by Ultimax or Commander - neither is a company I'm familiar with.The SD card is a UHS-1 and is low speed read and write ("up to" 48 mbps), so don't count on it keeping up with the 90D and get some SD cards that are faster and higher performing; get something that does at least 90 mbps reading.The spare battery with the kit is actually a Canon battery, so that was a pleasant surprise! I was expecting something generic. The spare battery charger is a generic one that also has a cord for plugging into a 12v cigarette lighter car outlet. To be clear, the Canon factory box includes a genuine Canon battery and charger with the camera.The real surprise in this kit was the speedlight ! It is made by Commander of whom I had never heard before, but it seems to be a good quality flash with plenty of features and even comes with a carrying case. It is a little on the "large" side - about a third larger than my other budget speedlight. But it is a great starter flash for beginners I think and if you look up the model on Amazon.com - it costs $49.99 to buy it separately, so it adds value to this kit all on its own!All in all, whether buying new or "renewed" this kit is a great value if you're looking to buy just the EOS 90D body and use your own lenses that you already have or lenses that you plan to buy instead of using a kit lens. Enjoy!

Camera itself works flawlessly & as expected. A starter lens would of been a nice touch and very useful. As far as the accessories go: The remote is picky most of the time about when it works. (Cannon Connect App replaces any need for that anyways) The kit remote has to be pointed exactly in the right spot it seems like. Flash actually seems really decent! It's probably a $65 to $100 mass produced off brand one if I had to guess. But it feels nice quality, similar to my ancient Nikon Speedlight Flash. The tripod is straight garbage! I wouldn't even use it to hold my iPhone, let alone a 4 pound DSLR. Tripod is good for squishing down the abundance of papers in the trash can. That's about it for that. Guessing the SD card probably isn't the best for shooting 4k video, as far as write speed goes. Seems like your basic card, so I didn't end up using it. I'm sure the card would work fine for occasional family pics and grandma's random trip to the casino. But probably not the greatest in a more semi-professional setting. Card reader is totally irrelevant unless you're using a computer made in 2007. Wrist strap would of been useful, but as far as quality & feel - it's super lame. Bag is small but still very decent. Monopod stick was also surprisingly decent quality as well, but I doubt I'll ever need to use it. The car charger & 2nd battery is off-brand (not Canon) which was sad, but they work fine the couple times I've used them. I wish the main Canon charger had a wall plug, but these come with a 4 or 6 inch removable cord. It's dumb, it's too short to reach the floor, so it just hangs down and dangles off the wall when charging. It should come with a miniature step stool to place the charger on. - Honestly I'll probably sell some of the lesser accessories as they're more for beginners or your 16 year old to try out for the high school newspaper photo club, but overall the camera works like it should and about half the accessories are solid.

The shutter on the camera broke 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty ended. Wasn't happy it broke so soon after the warranty ended, but in fairness, I shot over 20,000 pictures in a year, so I guess the shutter was just worn out. I contacted Paging Zone, and a person answered immediately. AJ was extremely helpful and polite. He said to send the camera to them along with a copy of the invoice. When he received it a day later, he called me immediately to let me know the shutter was broken and needed to be replaced. It took a couple days for him to order the shutter, and as soon as it came in they repaired the camera and shipped it back to me. The whole process was complete in just under 2 weeks. The price for the repair was reasonable in my mind. AJ made the whole thing happen without a hitch. I recommend his company to anyone. Thank you AJ and Paging Zone.

Amazing camera, I'm upgrading from a Canon T6i and this has such a learning curve.As for the bundle, being 'free' it was pretty much as I expected; the spare battery is not a high capacity one, but works as an emergency option, and the 64gb card is useful. The other stuff is cheaper quality as I thought it would be. The monopod is OK, but the tripod is only about maybe 4ft tall, and really thin aluminum. The camera bag is also pretty flimsy, but might be usable as maybe a small drone bag.All in all, since it cost as much as just the camera body, it's worth it.

The camera and SD card are really great, but every other thing in the bundle is cheap.For example the extra battery can't communicate with the camera, so the camera doesn't know how full it is. You never know when it will run out. It's only good as a backup plan until your main battery is full again.The tripod is made of plastic and is really weak. It shakes a lot and the weight of the camera with the 18-125mm lens is enough to lower it slowly.I couldn't make the remote work at all.The backpack is not that bad but not the best either.
