great accessory kit to buyStrengths: Great price for what you get Weakness: It's only my personal opinion but it would be great if the case itself has a strap. Great price for battery + leather case. I've been shopping around to find this battery and the battery itself cost as much as this kit, sometimes even more than that. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Great value in one packageStrengths: includes battery, leather case and strap Weakness: n/a This is a great buy. And this is the second kit i bought to be used as an gift. It includes the accessories necessary for the camera, while its price is close to what you pay for the battery itself. Highly recommended if you are looking for a kit for your SD110, SD400 or SD500.

Digital Elph Accessory Kit 2Strengths: Great fitting leather case, extra battery for my digicam Weakness: None yet The leather case fits my new Canon SD500 like a glove. It has a very nice feel to the leather, definitely quality material. The price I paid for the case and extra battery was about $10 cheaper than it would have cost if I bought than separately. It also comes with a nice neck strap. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Great value and additional welcome to your Canon...
Strengths: Great value. An original battery, a higher quality strap by Canon, and a Canon leather pouch are included. Useful accessories showing good quality.
Weakness: None.
For any Canon Digital Camera, an additional battery pack is always welcome so that while one is being charged or stored away after use, the second pack may come into play so that none of those Kodak moments may slip away.
The battery is the same as the one that came included with my Canon SD550 and so works just as well.
As for the Canon strap, I find its a really nice additional accessory but its a little long for my taste. It's possible to be used as a neck strap for your compact digital camera or to provide extra leverage on your camera by offering a longer length. I'm fine using the original strap that came with my camera. Perhaps I'll use this one when my original strap wears out.
And last but not least, the infamous leather pouch. It encompasses the camera only and nothing else. It's a perfect fit for any of the listed Canon Digital Cameras and will surely protect your investment as I purchased one of these cases by Canon separately (way back when I owned my Canon Powershot S230 Digital Camera. It kept my investment scratch free for more than 2 years.).
I would highly recommend against trying to slip or place other objects or accessories along with the camera as those will surely provide the friction to cause cosmetic abrasions and perhaps even damage to your camera. If you need extra room, this is not the case to get.
As for those who use a strap, there is a perforation to slip your strap through the hole so that you may carry the camera by the strap with its case on. This is very handy unlike some third party camera cases.
I would highly recommend this entire package as a much needed accessory for the supported Canon Digital Camera models.
