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....

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!

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.
 

My wireless surround R and L don't sound and my center, they only sound when i do the test, how can I resolve the problem?

This sounds like an issue that may be with the disc or input into the system. Since the system itself can make the test sound it appears that everything works. This might be a question best asked at Samsung support or get the Geek Squad to come and take a look.

Do you need to have a 3D TV in order for this appliance to operate?

You do not need a 3D TV for this devise to work. It is fully backward compatible and works with any TV you will just not have the advantages of 3D but you will have the advantages of the sound that is better than TV speakers!

Type on anything with Logitech K480 Wireless Multi-Device Keyboard - a unique compact computer keyboard that also works with your tablet and smartphone. Easily switch between 3 connected Bluetooth devices by turning the EASY-SWITCH dial. Type in comfort with the familiar keyboard layout, with all the shortcut keys you use the most, whether you're typing on a Windows, Mac or Chrome computer, or an Android or iOS tablet or smartphone. Plus, this multi-device keyboard features an integrated cradle that holds your phone or tablet at just the right angle for you to read while you type.
 

Will this work with Galaxy view

Seems to work with all my bluetooth devices so far so I'm going to say it should work with the View. I don't have one so I can't be 100% positive but my S4, Tab 2 and my Tab S all work. Good Luck!

With an 8" TFT touch screen, this Samsung Galaxy Tab A SM-T350NZAAXAR tablet simplifies content navigation. Dual-band Wi-Fi makes it easy to access the Web, and a Bluetooth 4.1 interface enables you to pair with select devices.
 

Can you easily delete unwanted, preloaded apps?

LOL, are you kidding! Sorry, that wasn't really helpful but I couldn't help it. There are some programs that come installed that you can get rid of with just an uninstall command in the application manager. On the other hand there are some programs that are permanently install whether you want them or not. It's been like that for decades on all phones and tablets from wherever you get them on both operating systems (iOS/Android). The only way to get them out is to perform a rooting of the device which can be hit or miss depending upon skill of the hacker. I did kill one phone doing the procedure once, it made a nice paperweight for my desk afterwards.

Problem with software update

Anyone else have a problem with system software update? It automatically downloaded a system update but it fails to install. Says "Failed to update software, try again using smart switch on your computer or visit Samsung service center" Samsung support says do a hard reset which will erase everything on the tablet, I want a better solution than that. Anyone have another solution?
I had one update come through and all seemed to go very well. If you are having a consistent problem with it loading after it comes across the network I would give a call to Samsung support, They may be able to give you a way to load it or tell you it needs help. Good luck

Samsung Tab A 8" 16GB or Samsung Pro 8.4 16 GB

What's the difference between the two tablets? I use my tablet for games, email and watching movies. Are they basically the same? Thanks
I have one of each actually and there are several differences. The Pro8.4 has a better resolution and a more wide screen format. The "A" has a squarer screen. The underlying aspects of the electronics are pretty much the same and they both seem to work really well. I think they have different processors but same RAM and Storage capacity. Get a salesperson to help you with comparisons at the store. They had the detail for both on hand I believe or can at least pull out the boxes and show you what's in the device. If you're watching movies a lot then the 8.4 is really better looking in my opinion. Both will play them.

Charger question

Does this tablet come with a charger and cable?
Yes. Comes the usual charger and a USB cable. At least mine did so I will have to think they all do.

Differences between Smokey Titanium and White Models

I don't see complete Product details in detail as in other ads for same product. Also what is this Geek squad, my protection plan was more than geek squad.
Pretty sure the only difference is the color of the device. The Geek Squad is Best Buys technician department. They are supposed to be knowledgeable about the products they sell and can help you with setting up or fixing any issues that arise from normal use or give you option on what to do next if they can't fix it. You'll have to check with them to explain your particular protection plan above and beyond the Geek Squad. There are just too many out there to answer here.

I have a tab A 8 inch. How do you get a charge when camping? Would a solar charger work with my tablet?

This may work, the only criteria you need I believe is at least 5V@500ma output on your charger. If you can get up to 1a on the output even better. Good luck and I hope it works out for you!

Where are the speakers located on this device?

The Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 inch tab had both speakers on the bottom of the device for use vertically (longways), but as we know we don't watch videos this way.
It actually has only one speaker on the bottom (holding it vertical) and is not very good for listening to movies unless you have nothing else. I usually opt to plug in my headphones to watch movies.
