A very usefull accessory pack at a great price.
This is a really useful accessory pack and truly great bargain for the price. I have previously paid significantly more for a single polarising filter, and there is one of those in this pack.This set inludes 4 different filters which come with an excellent padded wallet which has separate pockets for each filter and a nice velcro closure. Each filter has a screw thread which fits perfectly on my Canon EF 100-400mm L 4.5F IS USM lens. The filters all have screw threads on both sides, enabling filters to be stacked in any combination desired.The polarising filter is a great accessory. Basically it only allows light through in one alignment (polarised) which greatly reduces reflexions and increase the saturation of colours, especially blue skies which looks a much darker and more intense blue. Once fully screwed in place, the polarising filter and be rotated independently of the screw thread which is very helpful for finding the alignment that provides the best effect.The UV filter has limited impact on digital photography as these filters were designed for filtering out UV which has a greater impact on film. However, having this filter permanently attached to the lens is a great way of protecting the front element on your expensive lenses.The neutral density filter is another vital accessory. It reduces the amount of light entering the lens, without adding any colour tint. It is really useful for when you want to do some slow shutter photography, such as blurring motion on a waterfall, but there would otherwise be too much light to do it.The flourescent light filter is a bit of a mystery for me. It is intended to correct the white balance when taking pictures inside under fluorescent lighting, but these days the auto white balance function on most digital cameras will do this for you. I have not yet tried this filter but look forward to experimenting with this to see if it has other creative possibilities.Also included in the set is a lens cap and a petal type hood. The cap is a centre pinch type. It fits my lens perfectly and stays in place securely. Lens caps are easy to lose so having a spare is always useful. The lens hood however is less useful. The petals are too short to provide much shade for the lens. It also attaches via the same screw threads as the filters. I found this particullarly fiddly and time consuming to attach.The kit contains a lens cleaning pen. If you are still using cloths or brushes on their own to clean lenses, then you need to get one of these pens immediately as they are just brilliant. At one end of the pen is a cap which is removed to expose a soft round disk which is impregnated with carbon powder. You gently press this disk against the lens and wipe it over the surface. The carbon dust is the best way to clean greasy finger marks and the softness of the pad is very gentle on the lens. Once the marks on the lens have been removed, you turn the pen around and use the button to slide out the soft brush which you use to brush out any remaining carbon dust.Finally there is an additional security strap with a self adhesive pad at one end for attachment to a lens cap, so that it can be linked to the lens itself.So basically there are a lot of useful accessories for a remarkably small price.I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest review.

Great noise cancellation while maintaining awesome
I did not expect much...at all, but these blew me away! I have a 25 HP zero turn mower that makes a LOT of noise. These headphones do a great job of cancelling out the drone while delivering clear sounding music with really nice bass. Very happy so far!

Great if you need a first time drone experience.
This is a great beginner drone, a bit hard to control at first, but you'll eventually get used to it and understand its limits. Just don't expect super fine tune maneuverability with this drone. It's a lot smaller than I had realized, even looking at the dimensions listed in the ad, it's really lightweight and fits right in the palm of my hand. I crashed the drone on SEVERAL occasions on my first day of use and it held up just fine, making the fact that it's so lightweight an EXCELLENT thing.The controls are very intuitive to anyone who plays a lot of video games, I barely needed to skim the directions to understand how to fly it. The controller has a slot to hold your cell phone and use the app, though I feel weird about recording my neighbor's properties so I did not choose to use the camera app... I am one of the types who's NOT curious about what's hiding over the fence.I would like to eventually take it to a public park or a beach and use the camera, I'll update the review with pics when I do so.I would say definitely get this if you're new to drones and need an inexpensive one to learn to fly with, if you are looking for a more professional drone that could carry a go-pro or to be used for anything serious at all, look elsewhere and expect to pay more. The low price on this is really a saving grace, I'd say it's totally worth it for beginners and children alike.

Used like new #just kidding
When I got the drone it showed significant signs of heavy use and not used like new. It has heavy use and strain. I’m sending back. Does it function yes, but will it stay in the air uhhhhhhhh I’m not trying it. Imagine it would be fine if it wasn’t as heavy used

Easy to use for beginners, and it can take a beati
I’ll start by saying this is the first drone I’ve ever owned. I have flown one of my buddies before but as far as this drone is concerned it flies well. I wouldn’t and picture quality is decent. For the price point. It’s something fun to start with if you are curious about playing around with drones and don’t want to spend the big money on the name brand ones. As far as durability I will say this one has held up well so far. I’ve let some of my nieces and nephews fly it and they’ve flown it straight into building and trees to have it crash to ground. Turn it back on, and it’s back in action. Overall I’m happy with the purchase.

Perfect!
I bought this for my son’s 10th birthday. It’s amazing!! We have a home cell phone and he uses that with this drone. My husband even likes flying it around the yard! I think the best part is that it’s easy to use and came with extra parts. Definitely a win!!

Good for kids
My 11 year old has been asking for a drone with a camera. This year for her birthday we got her this one and it has been great so far. She was able to figure it out pretty quick. Even if she destroys it, it wasn't too expensive which makes it perfect to learn on.

Best drone for beginners like me!
This drone is incredible!Video and pics are fantastic with great stabilization from the gimbal. Has great distance and alert system for many unexpected situations. Return to Home feature is so comforting and flight restriction warnings help to keep you in check. I love it and will upgrade with DJI when the time is right.

Perfect for kids and beginner mom's! Lol
This drone was a gift for my 8yo son. He absolutely loves it. Pretty easy to understand and get connected. Very durable and a good battery length. Plus I'm definitely not the most tech savvy mom out there but this was even easy for me to use and the camera quality is excellent for the price you pay .
