Summary: Not bad for being free
Review: (...) It's actually not 4 feet tall, it is if you dont extend the neck. I'm 5'9" and its just about the right size for me. The case isn't too bad, a little on the cheap end but what do you expect (...)?

Summary: This is more than a good deal.
Review: (...) This is more than a good deal. The tripod is more than 4 feet tall. Fully extended and with the camera attached it is nearly six feet tall. People would buy this kit on their own so combined with the low camcorder price this is a steel.

Summary: Hey, it was free
Review: Bag: Best deal of the bunch. Reasonable quality. Not too big, but (just) big enough to hold the Sharp digital camcorder, battery, charger, cables, 2 tapes, and a smartmedia case.Tripod: [Not very good]. Thin aluminum. Somewhat wobbly. Definitely not on par with even a low-end SLIK or other quality tripod. Cleaning kit: Nice to have some cleaning solution, wipes, and a lens brush. Probably would cost a couple bucks at Wal-Mart, and this was free, but nothing to write home about. Overall, no complaints because it was free with my camcorder. If the free deal runs out, here's what I'd recommend: Go to your local discount department store. Buy a bag (similar bags go for $10-15). Buy the lens stuff for a couple bucks. With your remaining cash (or for $5-10 more), buy a quality tripod. [Amazon.com] has an Ambico V-0566 57" for $29.99 I wouldn't buy the tripod for any amount of money (it will probably end up in a garage sale - maybe somebody else will pay a couple bucks). I was hoping that the quick release shoe would fit in my SLIK, but it doesn't. But hey, it was free.

Summary: Camcorder kit
Review: BR>Never pricing the items in a store I thought it would be a good deal. Found out it wasn't. The bag was too small, the tripod to flimsy. Went to a local department store and bought a leather bag, twice the size and a very sturdy tripod with more options for the same price. In my opinion this product was over priced.

Summary: Worth the money!!!!!
Review: Considering that it was free, it was well worth the money. I already have a few tripods, so this one is a good back-up. One thing I like about it is, although it is kind of flimsy, it's very lightweight and transports easily. As for the bag, I was sure that I wouldnt use it. It turns out that I will probably use often for keeping all of the accessories in. The bag is the perfect size for keeping everything together. This was my first experience with amazon.com and overall I was pleased. My only gripe is that they waited 3 days to ship an item that was in stock.

Summary: Good free, not worth $
Review: Got this kit free by buying a camcorder. It's okay free, but wouldn't spend $ for it. Tripod is very basic, no vertical gear mechanism, no plumb indicator, tendency to "stick" when panning horizontally. I don't feel secure transporting the camcorder in the bag; when closed there are openings on both sides of the bag where stuff can drop out, and the single zippered pocket is too small to carry much.

Summary: Starter kit
Review: I get this kit for free buying a camcorder. I am not too sure what the market price for this kit is and how it compares to other products in the market. However, I do find the kit to be very useful, particulaly the bag, and to a smaller extent the tripod. Quality is so so, but very acceptable for me since I only use it every once in a while.

Summary: They should pay you to take this item
Review: I got it for free after buying a camcorder. It simple terms it is a real piece of garbage. The bag can't fit a small lunch let alone a camcorder, and if you vaule your equipment don't use the tripod it is flimsy. Good thing I didn't pay for this.

Summary: Worth it.... if it's free!
Review: I got this for free with my camcorder and it is definitely a good package for a beginner. Decent tripod lifts high and steady, although I get the feeling it could break with extended use. The bag is great for starters, but the cleaning kit is just some alcohol and a little blow brush. Wouldn`t buy it, but good for what it is.
