I recieved this package deal and everything is as expected. I went for this because I like the bag and did not have a tripod at all. The bag is of very good quality and I am confident that it will serve me well. I can fit my t3i and a 250mm lens in the main compartment nicely and it seems very well protected. you could also fit a decent size lens in the 2nd section, two lenses in fact if you don't mind them touching and rubbing on each other (which I'm not sure I wanna tempt fate). Any of the other pockets are kind of small and would only hold a few things that are skinny such as cards and filters. It is comfortable to wear and the sling design is very handy, not having to remove the bag to use it. I thought this bag would suit me as I have only my t3i and 2 lenses but basically I boxed myself in. I am getting another lens soon (50mm) and will now have to think about what I want to pack. The tripod is what I expected, cheap and somewhat flimsy. It was only a few bucks more to get the tripod so I figured I'd try. I'm not sure I'm confortable trusting this with $900 on top of it. I think I may use this as a hiking tripod (it's very light) with limited use. I will be getting a better tripod soon as well.
This bag is great for what it is, though I think one more lens pocket would go a loooooong way. The sling design is fantastically usefull and it feels solid. One day I will have a bag that can hold more gear and this will make a nice "moving around" bag. I suggest you skip the tripod though. So If you want a good bag that halds a camera +2 lenses (one on the body, one in the pouch) then this is a good one.

The products arrived quickly. I did not like the way the camera bag fit when put over my shoulder. The waist strap was so high it felt awkward. I ended up returning the kit for this reason. The tripod seemed good for a beginner. Definitely takes a lot of time to lock legs into place at height you want so I could see how if wanting to use this on trips or for quicker shots this would get real annoying. For a beginner it would be a nice tripod to practice with if you aren't ready to spend more money.
Best Deals for Case Logic Digital SLR Sling Camera Bag/Case (Black) (SLRC-205)
I wanted the Case Logic sling bag, and most places online have it for about the same price. This kit was $10 more, but came with a cleaning kit (nothing too special here), and a tripod (actually pretty impressed by this pretty good quality, good ergonomics, and lots of adjustments). And you can strap the tripod onto the bag!
