great addition for your photographic needs

I bought a couple of these for my lenses. The padding is thick enough to absorb bumps. I like the Velcro straps which hangs outside my camera backpack's strap holders. You can also use it for stuffing your extra photo accessories such as batteries, filters and other knick knacks to free up your backpack's main compartment.
What's great about it: thick padding, quality material, stitching, velcro straps

Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM Standard Lens: This standard Canon lens offers high-quality image capturing in a small, lightweight lens body, making it a great companion in crowds and public spaces. Its versatile features and easy portability make it especially suited for basic travel, portraits and memento shots.
Opened the box and whoa the lens is really flat! Compared to the nifty fifty this lens has more substance as the plastic material is much better quality and has a metal bayonet flange. I have the Canon 50mm f/1.8 but found the reach is a bit much. A 40mm on a full frame camera is an ideal lens combination for me. It takes sharp images and can also handle close-ups well. This lens was specifically made for the T4i but it works with all EF/EF-S systems too.
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Standard Lens: This compact, lightweight lens features excellent Gaussian optics and multicoated glass to produce consistently exceptional results, making it ideal for everyday use. It's versatile enough to be effective in a variety of shooting situations and has a fast 1.8 maximum aperture for excellent low-light performance.
Read lots of rave reviews for this lens and went ahead and got it. The lens feels like a toy because it's so light due to the body being made of plastic including the bayonet flange! But the most important thing is the images are sharp.
Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens: This Canon macro lens enables life-size magnification of small subjects. The included macroflash makes it easy to take close-ups even in dim lighting, while the inner focusing and ring USM offer sharp images with negligible blur.

Sharp lens at half an 'L' price
on July 11, 2012
Posted by: kanehi
from Honolulu, HI
I was debating whether to buy the 'L' or this lens and this one won. After reading all reviews from web sites I went ahead and bought it and don't regret it. I use it on my Canon 5DII and 60D and the sharpness is incredible and the macro feature is a big plus. Focusing is fast and near silent. IS feature is a nice but not a necessity.
What's great about it: Sharpness, price, ease of use, lightweight

Most affordable 'L' lens
on November 5, 2011
Posted by: kanehi
from Honolulu, HI
I bought this lens specifically for my Canon 5DII and it works exceptionally well. The images are tack sharp, the colors are natural and focusing is fast and accurate. The focus ring is easy to manipulate in manual mode and everything works smoothly including turning the zoom ring. This lens compliments my other 'L' lens, the 24-105L. I wished the 17-40mm had IS but the cost would have been prohibitive. Since this is a 17-40mm on FF cameras it's equivalent to a 27-64mm on an APS-C camera. BestBuy had this lens for $20 less a week after I bought it and credited the difference due to their price match guarantee, way to go BestBuy!
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: wished it had IS for the same price
I have two 1tb HDD on my system and it gets really hot inside the case so I got these fans to dissipate the heat of the HDD. Unfortunately my HDDs isn't your typical installation (HP mid tower) so I couldn't really attach these properly. One drive is attached to the base of the case and the other is perpendicular to a bay (cd/dvd bay). I had to attach these fans on top of the HDDs instead using a 3M automotive tape which is very sticky. The fans are quiet. Make sure your PSU has extra power connector for the fan.
What's great about it: Great price and does what it does well

Great camera backpack
on December 13, 2010
Posted by: kanehi
from Honolulu, HI
This is actually my second backpack. I just bought a Canon 60D and thought I would get a backpack for the lenses and accessories as they are getting more numerous. I saw this on sale online and used my RewardZone points and got it for only $30 so that was a great deal in itself. The material is excellent and solid. There are multiple zippered compartments and the main compartment has plenty of adjustable padded compartments for the camera, lenses and accessories and it has a memory card holder. My other backpack holds my former camera and lenses that I don't need.
What's great about it: Value, good materials, compartments, lightweight
NETGEAR Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender: Improve the network coverage throughout your home with this universal Wi-Fi range extender. Connect your gaming console, Smart TV, Blu-ray player and more with the four convenient Ethernet ports, for an expansive wired network the whole family can enjoy.
After debating for months to get this item I succumbed to it when I had a $30 rewardzone coupon. My BB store rarely has this item and when I was perusing one day online it was in stock! The package only came with the extender and power supply so it was a no-brainer to set up. I did have a problem with connecting at first but finally figured out why it wasn't synching with my wireless router (d-Link 655). By default the range extender uses AES and TKIP. I had to manually set it up for AES only with WPA, same as my wireless and voila it worked and couldn't be happier. I also like the 4 ports it comes with. This will come in handy if your system doesn't have wireless capabilities but can connect with a cable.

Doesn't allow you to add an SSD drive
Byjasonj566
I purchased and returned the new Alienware 13 R2 OLED laptop from Best Buy. I bought it with the anticipation of putting in a fast SSD drive, since it comes with a slow 500gb regular hard drive. I took it apart and Alienware does not have any other ports for an SSD. This makes no sense, I wanted to put a Samsung SSD 950 PRO NVMe 512GB SSD in the laptop. Save yourself the time and not buy one, I ended up just ordering the highest end off Alienware' s website.

One star because you can't place another drive?

Just replace the original HDD with an SSD. Most laptops don't have a second bay for another drive except the 17" ones like some models from HP.

OEM

Nothing wrong with OEM version. It has the full functionality of the retail version and is much cheaper. You can only install this on one computer just like the retail version. The only downside is there's no tech support from MS. MS Windows 10 rarely crashes.
Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM Medium Telephoto Lens: Get sharp, clear photos with this Canon medium telephoto lens that delivers vibrant color and clarity with fast, quiet focusing. The 85mm focal length draws attention to your subject and transforms the background into a soft blur for professional-quality portraits and impeccably detailed close-up shots.
Nerd Alert* When stopped down to F1.8 there is a noticeable amount of aromatic aberrations of purple and green fringing. But for the price and the focal length this is a pretty awesome lens. Buy it if you want it!

It happens under certain lighting conditions and at larger apertures. Stopping it down or changing the camera angle will decrease it.

"SAVE UP TO $150
ON SELECT LENOVO COMPUTERS
Plus, college students can save an additional $150"
but I don't know how to get this deal with buying this laptop.
Also, is the deal only for August?
You have to enroll with BB with an ".edu" email and they'll send you the student discounts. This email is what you use in school.
what is a great wireless printer for a future college student ?
Any printer with wifi or Bluetooth option should be good to go. The big question is how much the inks will cost in the long run. If you do print a lot of color or black/white a laser printer would be much cheaper in the long run.

How well is that graphics card?
How well can this laptop take games like Warcraft 3 or company of heroes, and Starcraft 3, also, how good is the graphics card compared to the Inspiron N5040?
This is a Pentium processor so it's not a powerful one to play extensive gaming and besides it only comes with 4gb RAM. You will be seeing lag while gaming.

How long does it take to charge the battery, before it turns on?
I have been charging it for quite a while now, and all I see is the red light indicating battery charging. I don't see the light for the on off or for the wireless.
It takes 2-3 hrs to charge the battery and it does charge while in use. No light for the wireless but you can see the icon on the desktop if it's active. And this laptop doesn't have backlighting.

HDD replaceable
Can I install a solid state drive in place of the 500gb HDD, or is that not upgradeable like the Ram
Yes you can. Unfortunately Microsoft doesn't like it's system cloned so you have to fresh install Windows 8.1 or 10 on the SSD drive.
