The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT/XTi Starter Kit is a collection of 3 useful accessories for your SLR.
It includes the 200DG Digital Gadget Bag, a bag for travel and storage that's large enough (10.5 x 7.5 x 7") to hold up to 2 SLR bodies and 3 lenses. It has accessory side pockets and a weather-flap lid.
The Starter Kit also has the NB-2LH Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery, compatible with the XT/XTi cameras and select PowerShot, Elura, Optura and ZR cameras, and a Canon UV-1 58mm UV Haze Filter, which is used by many photographers to protect the front element of their lens from abrasions, dust, and moisture.

Excellent camera bag with ample room and size-adjustable compartments. Perfect for a first-time buyer who's unsure of the camera bag that will accommodate their camera needs. The added plus is that you get the extra battery and a UV filter included with the bag. The extra battery is perfect for those moments when your primary battery loses charge and you have more pictures to take. The UV filter comes in handy for anyone who cares to keep their lens protected.
It's a nice kit and it's the best price I've found online. Let's just say that as soon as I got it, my camera equipment was comfortably placed inside, it's comfortable to carry around, and compact enough to be stored anywhere.

I purchased the rebel xt and purchase this starter kit at the same time. I don't feel it was a great deal since I am already looking for another bag because this one is so big and awkward to carry around. I would recommend getting the items separately since you will probably end up getting a second bag to carry items in. I use this bag for storage at home only and pack what I want to bring in a separate bag.

This is such a great bag and the fact that it also comes with the UV filer and battery is incredible. The bag is made well and the clasps are metal, not plastic so you know they'll last. I would highly recommend this bag, it's fantastic.

Outstanding design allows for 2 additional lenses and 2 additional flashes besides the complete camera in a compact size. Plenty of compartments for cards, cables, batteries, filters, you name it! This is no "starter" bag. Most pros carry their event coverage kit in a similar product. The difference is that this one is very well built and looks good. The battery and filter are the icing.

It's a big bag.
I'll be using it for storage mostly.
Bag is sturdy, lots of room, looks nice with shiny buckles! Backup Canon battery, and filter that I would've bought anyway. Good to get you started.

Well built bag with good access to all sections. Large enough for another camera body, extra lenses and flashes. All pieces in this kit are genuine Canon so quality is assured.

The bag is larger than I expected, and of very good quality! I think this bag will last a long time...has a nice shoulder strap for easy carrying, the velcro keeps everything closed tight, along with very sturdy fasteners to snap it closed. A good product!
Comments about Canon Starter Kit: includes Gadget Bag, NB-2LH Battery & 58mm Filter:
This bag is just what I wanted. I got the kit because it had the extras for just a few dollars more than I would have spent for the bag itself.Note the size of this bag, and that everyone else is saying this bag is big and bulky. If you do not have multiple lenses, or do not plan on buying other things for your camera, this bag is too big. I currently have a tabletop tripod, two lenses, flash, battery grip and a point and shoot, and still have room for my charger and extra batteries and filters.I am a big guy, and this bag is big enough that I can easily over fill it for long days worth of carrying. Soft but sturdy, and an excellent purchase.

I bought this bag to carry my Digital Rebel XTi and my Rebel film camera. I am a bit petite and the bag is a good size for me and even with those 2 cameras with lenses plus a table top tripod, a hot shoe flash, a an old Welmy 6x6 I still have room to spare. The other great thing is the extra battery and filter. All in all a great way to get the things you need in one.

Comments about Canon Starter Kit: includes Gadget Bag, NB-2LH Battery & 58mm Filter:
I bought this for my Canon Rebel XTi. The UV lens and battery pack is a plus. The size and bulk of this bag might be a bit much for a female. I would probably store my camera and accessories in this bag, but I'm currently looking for another bag that can be carried around comfortably. Quality of this bag is good. Well worth the price. But again, probably will not be the bag you'll be carrying around with you.

Comments about Canon Starter Kit: includes Gadget Bag, NB-2LH Battery & 58mm Filter:
I recently bought the Canon rebel Xti, and i decided to goahead and get the starter kit along with a flash diffuser,and cleaning kit. The bag itself is heavy duty, and caneasily hold your body and 4 lenses. i went with what one guytold me and get more than what you need, as i only have onebody and 2 lenses so far. i have a smaller case, but as iveslowly grown in the field of photography, i feel like illbuy more lenses eventually and this case will do me fine fora very long time. it also comes with the haze filter, whichi put on my lens right away, and an extra battery. The casehas many pockets, more than enough for the intermediatephotographer to store all his little tools and gadgets in.Shipping/PackagingB&H is very well in this area, I was half expecting the bagto be folded and squashed like some places might send, butno, B&H sent a more than enough large box, with plenty ofpackaging, case looking exactly how it is in the abovepicture, with a red cardboard case around it. Items arrivedexactly when UPS said they would.
Expertise: Intermediate Photographer
Problems Encountered: Well, its a bit big for carrying around on your shoulder allthe time, but i'd switch over to my smaller case if I wasgoing to be.
