Pros: This is an impressive piece of equipment!!! It is going to take me a year to explore all the possible settings that I can use and enjoy. I now want to take shots of everything then weed out the bad ones. Just cannot put this camera down. The lens that comes with this package is perfect for a lot of different shots. I DO recommend getting a UV filter if only to protect the lens.

Cons: None yet.

Overall Review: My last SLR camera was a T70 bought in 1987. Had been using a "super zoom" digital in the interim, waiting for the DSLRs to be as good of quality as 35mm film. Boy am I glad I waited. Will probably be another 15 years before I purchase another "high end" camera.

Pros: Blu-ray, 17" display, 9 cell battery

Cons: HP software

Overall Review: Great laptop for the money, I have big hands and the keyboard fits great!!!, BUY the extended warranty for piece of mind.
