Amazon, where are your product descriptions?

(5 out of 5) by Mom2Joe&Sam on Mar 9, 2003 (Illinois)
Yes, this is an accessory kit for the Nikon Coolpix cameras but give us the particulars, please! I ordered this after making a guess from the picture as to what it contained. The kit comes with a CompactFlash card reader (plus software), a black camera case made of PVC/vinyl (it's soft and flexible, though), a nice little "wallet" for extra memory cards, a lens cloth, and an AC adapter. A nice kit for at a good price! I'm glad I took a chance.

Perfect Accessory Package!

(5 out of 5) by herman17 on May 26, 2003 (Kentucky)
I bought the Coolpix 4300 recently, and was looking for accessories like flash card reader, AC adapter, and a camera case. This kit gives you all that, plus a lense cleaning rag and a very nice folding pocket for up to 8 flash memory cards. The necessary drivers for the cardreader are available on the internet, and install very easily (XP and Win 98). The camera case comes with a shoulder strap and fits the camera, the AC adapter, plus all the cables (USB, Video) and the flash card folder. Considering, that a cardreader by itself already costs some [money], and the AC adapter some [money], it is an excellent value - highly recommend it for the 4300!

Very pleased with this kit! It's a great deal!

I have the Nikon Coolpix 4500 camera and I recently purchased this accessory kit for it. I have nothing but good things to say about it!!!
-The camera case is of very high quality and not only does it fit the 4500 camera, but there's also room for other accessories, such as the AC adapter, compact flash cards, etc.
-The AC adapter is very useful because it does NOT come with the camera (at least not with the Coolpix 4500).
-The compact flash card reader, lens cloth, and card wallet are other nice things to have.

If all of these items were purchased separately, the grand total of all of them combined would have been well over [$]. Thus, this kit is a very good buy and very complementary to the camera.

After I had purchased this kit, I read the reviews by other users and they seem to be misleading. But once I received the kit, I was pleasantly surprised by its contents and I discounted the misleading information supplied by some of the reviews.

A Great Buy If You Shop Around

(5 out of 5) by A Reviewer on Jan 13, 2004
I purchased the Nikon Coolpix Deluxe Accessory Kit from Walmart.com for under $30 in December 2003. Like several other reviewers, I found that the AC adapter that came with the kit (the EH-52) was NOT the one specified by Nikon for my Coolpix 4300 (the EH-53), and I was concerned about using it on a new camera that cost close to $400.

I contacted Nikon tech support by e-mail, and they responded that the EH-52 and EH-53 AC adapters are interchangeable. Both models have the same voltage and amperage output.

I bought the kit primarily for the case and the card reader. The case is well padded and roomy -- an excellent choice for those who need to carry more than the camera and an extra battery and memory card. If you are carrying just those three items, however, you might want to get a case that's smaller and less bulky.

The card reader is an excellent accessory, but it might be worth noting that the kit includes a "generic" (i.e., non-Nikon) card reader.

The other items that come with the kit are nice, but I do not have too much use for them. AC adapters limit the camera's mobility, but they are certainly handy if you are using the camera from a fixed location and have access to a power source. I prefer to keep memory cards in their original cases rather than use the card wallet that came with the kit. The lens cleaning cloth is also nice, but I would rather use the disposable kind so I do not worry about depositing dirt back onto an expensive lens after several uses.

The kit is a great buy if you can get it for a low price. Current (January 2004) online prices range from $19.76 (2buystore) to $69.99 (Circuit City), so shop around.

Misleading information

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Apr 2, 2003 (Philadelphia, PA United States)
The product itself is excellent, but it is not entirely accurate. I have a 2500 and the AC adaptor is not compatible with the 2500 model. My 2500 needs an EH-60 AC adaptor kit. This comes with an EH-52 adaptor. Unfortunately you have no way of knowing that until you receive the package. So for this price if you want a decent carrying case, card reader, cloth, and wallet this may work for you. Otherwise I would only suggest this for Nikon models that can use an EH-52 adaptor.

Very disappointed in the description. If I had a Nikon that used that kind of adaptor I would give this five stars.
