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

Verified Purchase:Yes
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.

Pretty decent support...

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!

Work with your files on the road via this My Cloud Home personal storage device. Mobile, desktop and web-based apps let you access to up to 4TB of files from anywhere there's an internet connection. This My Cloud Home personal storage device plugs directly into your Wi-Fi router for convenient centralized file storage and backups.
 

Does anyone know what kind of hard drive is in this? Is it two WD reds?

This model is a single 4TB drive and I can not find the exact drive they use in the box. The MyCloud Duo or EX2 does use the Red drives if you want Red and RAID you'll need the duo.

What size drives are in this device? are there two 4tb or 2 tb drives

This devise has several iterations. The 4TB MyCloud is one 4TB drive with no RAID capability. They have a dual drive models called MyCloud EX2 that can be configured for RAID use in several varieties. Hope that helps.

Avoid sparking during electronic repairs with this Insignia antistatic wristband. Its conductive carbon lining provides protective insulation, and it adjusts to fit any size wrist.
 

What do I do with it? It came with no directions. Help us dumb people please!

You wrap the end that looks like a wrist strap on your wrist and then clip the alligator clip to the chassis of your computer. It keeps you from building up static between you and the computer. It keeps the static from discharging through your components when you're working inside the computer.

Bring your original comic or manga characters to life with this Intuos Comic creative pen and tablet. It comes with downloadable Clip Studio Paint Pro and Anime Studio Debut 10 software applications to complete your digital workstation. This pressure-sensitive Intuos Comic creative pen and tablet recognize touch gestures for easy zooming and panning.
 

I see this comes with an installation CD. Does my laptop need a CD drive for opporation? What are laptop requirements to opporate this?

You can load the drivers and such from the CD but it is always recommended to download the latest of everything from Wacom's web site. If a download is not an option then you definitely need a CD reader. Loading the required software doesn't take long and is pretty straight forward. Once loaded you don't need the drive to operate the tablet. Good luck

Does the multi touch effect drawing? Like when your hand is resting on the pad as you draw, does it disturb the pointer?

It isn't supposed to interfere with drawing and if it does there is one of the quick controls that you can program to toggle touch on and off with the push of a button. I usually keep my touch off until I really need it for something then a tap of a button and full control is achieved.

Ideal for photography, art and design applications, this Wacom Intuos Professional PTH451 pen and tablet assist you in your creative process. The tablet's multitouch interface with gesture support allows simple navigation of on-screen content.
 

Is there no software bundle? Last Intuos Pro I purchased came with bundled software, and even the cheapy consumer-level photo tablet comes wit the MacPhun apps.

There is minimal software that is included at no charge a animation suite and there are a couple of trial titles.

Does the pen have the same level of sensitivity as the medium tablet? In other words, is the only difference the size of the tablet?

The small, Medium and large are all the same in regard to sensitivity. The only difference is the size. Taking that into consideration the size does matter depending on what you're using it for. I use it to touch up photos and make selection in Photoshop. If you're using it as a drawing tablet then you might want to use the bigger models to get the long sweeping strokes used in drawing or illustration. I would suggest trying the sizes if possible, which can be difficult since they don't have them on display usually. It is the best way to be sure of how it feel with your style of use. Good Luck!!

Save time when you batch-edit photographs with Adobe Photoshop Elements 15. Sort photos automatically with the software’s enhanced smart tagging feature and find pictures via geotags or visual similarity. Specialized tools within the program let you fix frowns, remove camera shake and remove red-eye, making Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 an invaluable addition to your photography needs.
 

IS THIS ACTUALLY A DISC INSTALL OR A DOWNLOAD

Retail box contains a disc and instruction to use the disc and can be downloaded as well. If you get a retail download card then it can only be downloaded. Either way you do it you need a Adobe account online. There is no extra cost involved but you need to use the ID to register the software and get the install code. After that you can continue without any more interaction with Adobe if you choose. Good Luck!

I am enrolled in Adobe Photoshop for this semester & in the email the instructor sent said she will be using Adobe CC. What is that program? I don't know if this one is right.

Elements is not Creative Cloud (CC) this would not be what the instructor is talking about. There are many tools that are the same but CC is much more powerful and if you're instructor is doing anything other than Photoshop in the class this will not have it, such as Illustrator or Lightroom, etc. Adobe CC (the full suite) is many programs that Adobe has and Photoshop is just one of them. You can get an Adobe CC subscription for just Photoshop and Lightroom for 9.99 a month. The full CC is quite a bit more a month. Go to the Adobe web site and you can see everything they have to offer. Good Luck and have fun!!

do I have to buy a subscription along with the disc

At this time Elements is a single user license that does not require a subscription. There is no way of knowing what Adobe might do in the future but right now it's buy disc, load and go. No other costs involved.
