All in all this kit is a good deal for the money spent. Prior to my purchase I watched a number of youtube reviews on the T6/1300 and for the most part they were all positive so I jumped in and bought it after comparing this to other camera kits in the same price range. Everything arrived as expected EXCEPT there was NO battery! I went back to the product description to make sure that I didn’t read it wrong and it definitely said “LP-E10 Lithium-Ion Battery Pack” was included, but not so although the charger was included. Thankfully I had also bought a double pack of batteries which arrived a couple of days before the camera kit did. As a retired Art Director I was able to acquire a lot of photography and photoshop experience with product and location shoots used in advertising, etc and this was back in the 35mm days so I do know quite a bit about apertures, f/stops, ISO’s etc. Having ditched 35mm years ago when digital came on the scene I spent years with point and shoot cameras, but I always wanted to get back to a more serious camera with all that it has to offer. I’m still playing around with this one, but so far there’s been no problems and I’m quite pleased with it and the ease in operation. For the novice, there’s some excellent T6/1300 tutorials on youtube plus a “T6/1300 for Dummies” book available on Amazon. Don’t let this price compared to the more professional and higher priced cameras fool you into thinking that this is in any way inferior to what else is out there at premium prices. This camera does it all and I couldn’t ask for more in a camera. If I were a professional photographer making a living off my work I’m sure I’d go to a more expensive camera with a wider range of features. With this purchase I also bought a Nifty Fifty 50mm and a 35mm lens plus a 58mm lens hood set (tulip and rubber), an Altura photo wireless flash trigger for synchronized flash and longer exposure times, and not caring for the ”touristy” neck strap that always has your camera bouncing around, I also bought the UBeesize Camera Neck Shoulder Sling Strap. Needless to say, the kit bag included wasn’t nearly big enough so I had to buy a larger bag for all the gear plus some accessories that I already had and more that’s bound to be bought in the future. Okay… Enough. In a nutshell, this is a great bargain for the price and the T6/1300 offers all that the average photographer would ever need or want. The missing battery is the only negative issue that I have,
