A good filter for the price

I put UV filters on all my lenses for protection. The Platinum brand strikes a good balance between price and build quality.

A good but not great movie

Definitely worth watching, but doesn't have quite the same magic as Finding Nemo.

Good mic for recording with DSLR
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: IslandDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as an external mic for my DSLR. I think it's a bit better than the internal mic under load, but when there's silence it produces a noticeable hissing on my recordings.

A tracker that has it all.
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: IslandDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased this on sale for $80 off. It was definitely worth it. It has all the usual step counting features, but also GPS and HR monitor. The former is really helpful so that you don't have to rely on the GPS in your phone to track your route and distance. Also, I like the blue color. Much better than the standard black color.

Capture stunning images of wide perspectives with this Canon 9522B002 EF-S wide-angle lens that features an aspheric lens element for high image quality from the center to the edges. The circular, 7-blade aperture delivers soft backgrounds.

A fantastic prime lens
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: IslandDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as an alternative to my 50mm 1.8 for times when I needed to be closer to my subject. As indicated by the "-S" this is for an APS-C sensor camera. On such a camera, it really approximates the human eye's field of view. It can produce good bokeh, but not as good as the 1.8.

Affordable Replacement Battery
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: IslandDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this as a second battery for my 7d. It's a cheaper alternative to the OEM version. My only concern is that it gets quite hot while charging in the OEM charger. Luckily I also purchased the DigiPower charger for Canon batteries with it. It does not get hot while charging in this charger. I probably wouldn't purchase it if I only had the OEM charger.

A good universal charger for Canon owner
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: IslandDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
This charger works by slipping adapter plates over the base. The good part is that because of the design, it can be used with a wide variety of Canon batteries. I have an old Rebel XTi, a 7D, and a G12 and there's adapters for the batteries in each of these batteries. The downside is that the plates themselves are a bit flimsy. Also, some of them rely on thin, plastic arms to hold the batteries in place. I imagine once one of the arms breaks you will not be able to charge that type of battery.
