Fujifilm XL05 Accessory Travel Kit for Compact Digital Cameras Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Not What I Expected
Comment: The product advertisement is misleading or incomplete (no picture of the actual contents). The following quote is from Fuji Mall:

"AC Adapter: Charge your batteries at home or around the world with the travel adapters."

What it fails to mention is that the charger is an external charger only, and you cannot power the camera or charge batteries while in the camera. I was looking for an AC Adapter that I can power the Camera (and charge it's batteries inside the camera).

The NiMH cells are not the 2500 ma/hr rating that comes with the E900 camera (they are 2000 ma/hr, but this was noted in the product specifications).

I teach a photography class and needed an AC Adapter to power each camera used during the class while demonstrating. This product does not meet this criteria. It can however charge up to 4-AA Batteries at a time (contacts are very flimsy and does not always make a good connection to cells), and includes an Auto Adapter which is handy.

Case is Bulky, not small enough to tote an E900 conveniently when not bringing the charger equipment.

Summary: You get what you pay for
Comment: I will keep this review simple.

For the price this is an ok deal.

However:
The bag is a bit bulky and has no belt loop.
The battery charger is finicky and has below average build quality
Batteries are generic rechargeables.

You are better off finding a bag that fits your needs perfectly and picking up a separate charger/batteries. It will wind up costing you less in the long run.

Summary: Good Camera Bag, Battery charger not well made.
Comment: The Fuifilim XLO5 kit comes with a fine camera bag. Its too soon to give the batteries a fair opinion, but I do know the charger is not of very good quality, the metal contacts that charge the battery bend very easily and have to be straightened at times if you not extremely gentle with it. Still not a bad buy for the money.
