Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon Digital Elph Camera Accessory Kit 2 for SD100, SD110, SD550 & SD500 Digital Cameras
Customer Review: Great Battery, Useless Neck Strap, Not so great Case
Summary: 2 Stars
I rated accessory kit 3 as well. Gave Kit 3 a 3 star. I gave kit 2 to my mom who just got a SD550. Great camera from what I can tell. This kit however needs major improvements. Going from the best about kit 2, to the worst about it, we will be starting with a review of the battery pack.
Battery...
Uhhh, not much to say here. Spare battery that to use as a hot spare out there if your running low after taking too many shots. Mine from kit 3 is great and I still use it to this day. I swap the active battery each time I charge. This is what gave this product as many stars as I have given it.
Final decision (Battery): WONDERFUL
Neck Strap... (Taken from Kit 3 and added improvements)
If your moving around this thing is WAY to long or way to short. It's too short to strap across you chest. It's way to long because if it hangs in front of you, your precious camera you just paid a couple to a few hundred for is now freely bouncing around. NOT good. My mom is really short and this is just too short for her to use as well. Not as much of a bouncing issue as me but still not useful enough for her. Her comment was, "This strap is either too short or too long. Doesn't fit me at all." Cracks me up because I never told her my personal opinion of the matter and she came up with the same results.
Final Decision (Neck Strap): use it for a jump drive that you use often or anything else. Just not your precious camera.
Case...
They screwed up on Kit 3, and this kit is still screwed up (managed to be even worse than kit 3). Velcro is fine for most usage so I can't knock that. Belt clip is fine and dandy. Case is pretty darn good at keeping the camera safe from outside elements and harm. Hole in center is useless as heck just like kit 3 (mom came to same conclusion). Here's where they REALLY screwed up.
Stitching in this case is worse than kit 3. In kit 3, you only had to worry about stitching screwing up your screen in the back of the case. In this case, you have stiching in the back AND the front. Unlike kit 3 which had a magnetic clasp where the stitching or any attachment to the case was hidden behind a soft cloth, this one is velcro and the stitching for that is on the inside front. The belt clasp has stiching on the other side. No escape in this kit. I HIGHLY advise for you to get a screen protector if using this case. Poor design and shame on the people who manufacture this case.
Final Decision (Case): "Move along people... nothing to see here." Seriously... don't bother using this case without a screen protector.
COMPLETE DECISION: I wouldn't buy this kit again at all. It's great that there's an extra battery but I don't think anything else is worth a penny more in this kit. Better off buying everything seprate. Going to lower my rating to 2 stars.
