Good size for a couple of lenses and other accessories when you need to run around for the shot! Couple of spots in it for snacks also! Very well made and seems to be of quality materials that can stand up to much use.

Seems to work well

I haven't used this battery very much yet but it charged as it should have and works in the camera which is more than I can say for some other third party batteries I have tried. We'll see in the future how well it holds up and only time will tell. I can say that although it's number nine in my battery arsenal I'm going to have it in the camera a lot in the next few months to see where it's going!

Bonus with camera purchase

This memory card is supposed to be a higher speed card and it appears to be capable in that regard. It's hard to give a better assessment of the card at this time because I haven't really used it very much yet. For the time that I have used it it has worked flawlessly and it is fast. Sandisk is one of the better companies and I has a few other cards from them that have been with me for many years. I can only hope that this one will work as well as they have.

Can hold many things with a 1/4 by 20 thread size. I received this as a bonus when I bought my camera and while it isn't the best to hold up my very large DSLR I can use it for many other things. I am actually using it to hold my cell phone clamp so I can do some hands free recordings for Facebook and Twitter. It fits nicely on my desk and it would be good in the field for many of the smaller cameras.

Good camera, good comapny

Verified Purchase:Yes
The 5D MkIII is one of the flagship cameras from Canon and the build quality is reflected in the status if the company. It is a rugged piece of equipment that can be used without worry of becoming broken by moderate bangs and bumps. It is a metal frame covered in poly-carbonate which stands up to quite the beating. It has two different styles of memory card slots and although I don't use the Compact Flash card slot I have that option if needed. Controls are laid out in a way that make them easy to reach when holding the camera comfortably. They also follow the rest of the Canon line to some degree so finding an item isn't that hard if you are transitioning from an older model or one that is not as advanced. It is a bit pricey but well worth the money if you are serious about photography or would just like some of the fancy features that aren't on some of their other models. Sometimes it's just the users preference and how or what they are taking photos of in their life.

Some how lost a bit of impact....

Verified Purchase:Yes
for the fact that it was so drawn out just as manner other movies now a day. Divide the last part into two and we can make double the money. Meanwhile I was pretty much over the whole thing at that point. I never did see it in the theater for that reason. I just waited for the disc. It was good entertainment as the other previous movies were and it finished the story as it should. It's worth the viewing and if you're into this genre you should enjoy it!

Star Wars....

Verified Purchase:Yes
continues into the next generation. It was as people said, very similar to the New Hope (Episode IV). The story line is very similar in many ways and different in other ways. I saw places where they could have made some changes for the better but it didn't happen. Overall it wasn't a bad installment to the series and it was good entertainment. Many aspects will continue to be bashed by the fanatical Star Wars fan and/or by real science. However neither has any merit in the cinema realm. This is entertainment and it is good if you go with the flow and not make a big deal out of thing that can't happen or things that are skipped over. Just enjoy it and it is good science FICTION!

and in being the third in the series comes off a little hokey but it is still a fun watch if you like this type of movie. This type being action suspense and some blood and guts. Dinosaurs trying to eat people is always a hoot, unless they're trying to eat you!

Yes I said older, it was on sale and I wanted to upgrade to Blu-ray. Good entertainment with some thrills. It was the first in the series and the best. Like any other movie you'll find that if you did something different and used common sense then there wouldn't be a movie but it was fun!

Will this require a subscription in the future?

No telling right now! It is a single license stand alone package at this point in time but who knows what Adobe might do in the future!

Can this be used with Mac OS Sierra? Can you retouch images as in Creative Suites?

It says it's Mac compatible but I use it on a Windows machine so I'm not sure if it works with that particular OS. You can drop on over to the Adobe forums to get a more specific answer for your particular situation. Good Luck! For the second part of that question it is very much like the CC version of Photoshop. It is not as powerful but you have a lot of the same retouching options that you have in Photoshop CC. Healing brush, Clone Stamp, color adjustments, levels, curves, etc. Happy Photography!!

This Samsung 5 Series HT-J5500/ZA Blu-ray home theater system includes 5 satellite speakers and a passive subwoofer. To build a complete 3D home theater system, you'll also need a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV and a high-speed HDMI cable.
 

Do these surround sound speakers come with a stand?

There were no stands included with this unit.

The rear speakers its wiress

I think you want to know if the rear speakers are wireless. I'm going to answer based on that! The rear speakers are actually semi-wireless. They are not hooked to the main unit by wires but there is a wireless receiver that can be placed very close to where you want to mount the speakers and the speakers are wired to that box. There are some wires involved on all the speakers but it isn't nearly as bad a full wired speaker that emanate from the main head unit.

What model is the Blu Ray player that comes with this package? I would like to compare its specs to stand alone models.

It's an all in one and doesn't have it's own model number. You would have to search around on the Samsung site and you might find the info you're looking for.

Does this unit have a HDMI input as well as output.? Many thanks.

Strictly an output but it does have ARC if your wondering if the TV will play through it. That works if your TV has ARC compatibility.

Does the blue ray need any regular updates.

I've only had it for a short time and haven't seen any updates since the first one when I hooked it up. I'm sure as time goes by there will be updates but there is never a way to tell how many will be rolled out. All depends on what might happen in the way of a bug that needs fixing or some new and improved menu they think up. If it's hooked to your wireless or wired network then this is an easy task. If not hooked up then it would have to be downloaded from somewhere, put on a disc and loaded through player tray.

I just bought this home theatre system the other day, and we sat down to watch a dvd. Randomly the player just shut off, I rebooted it and it did the same thing 3 times. Is the player flawed or is there a setting that causes it to shut off?

I haven't run into this issue and I don't see anything in the manual that would make it an option to go off on it's own. I would reach out to Samsung Support on this one.

Are the speakers wall mountable?

The speakers have one keyhole in the back to mount on a single screw in the wall or some kind of hook. The center channel has two keyholes due to it's width. I have the front L&R and rear L&R mounted on the wall with the center on a stand in front of my TV.
