Advantages: Brand name
Disadvantages: Too pricy for its value

We all know that Sony is a good brand, but there is no need to spend over $50 on a camcorder starter kit.

Even i use this one on my Tour Leading assignments to carry lots of items on the go^^ ... Read review

Advantages: Spare battery
Disadvantages: waste of money

The cheeky people at Sony are getting a bit far-fetched to call it an accessory kit. It's a bag with a charger and a spare battery.

It would have been better to bundle this kit with say, a UV filter to protect your lens or a cleaning kit or something useful. In my opinion, to save your money, ... Read review
