Excellent product for amateur photographers
5 / 5.0
I am a long-time novice photographer, and I bought the G10 looking to expand upon my abilities. Although I have heard that Opteka gear is not top of the line, I must say, I'm pretty impressed with it so far. This kit came in exactly as advertised. I'm not expert, but I haven't noticed any flaws yet -- no noticeable distortion and the build quality seems pretty solid. It's got everything I need to push my photography to the next level. I know that as I work with the kit more, I probably become more cognizant of its limitations, and I'll look to upgrade piece by piece, but it's a fantastic starting point!



- Note that the front group of the wide-angle lens can be detached to leave a macro lens, so you really do have all the pieces you need for a full lens kit.

- I may replace the bag, but it is reasonably well constructed, and large enough to fit my G10 inside my National Geographic camera pouch, my G10 manual, all of the kit, my SD880IS inside a small hard case, all of the necessary cables, 2 spare batteries, and I still have room for some more stuff

- One caveate: the circular polarizer cannot be placed before the wide-angle lens -- vignetting occurs. You will need to purchase a larger polarizer to put on the front of the wide-angle lens if you want to do that

Series 7 Kolinsky Sable Brushes by Winsor & Newton...In 1866 Her Majesty Queen Victoria gave orders that Winsor & Newton holders of the Royal Warrant be commanded to produce the very finest water colour brushes possible in her favourite size: the No.7. The resulting brush known as the Series 7 made from the finest Kolinsky sable hair set a standard of quality which is still maintained today. The Winsor & Newton Series 7 brush serves as the standard for the three principal qualities that define the finest water colour brush; a rapier-like point perfectly balanced spring and extraordinary capacity and flow control.We currently stock Series 7 brushes in sizes ranging from 000 to 10. We have provided an alternate image of the entire range so you can get a feel for the scale of the Series 7 sizes. Paints not included; pricing is for individual brushes.

• The look of real gold wire at a fraction of the price. Great for practicing wire wrapping technique, perfect for craft projects.

• PLEASE NOTE: PLATINGS AND COLOR COATINGS ARE PERMANENT, BUT THIS DOES NOT MAKE THEM IMMUNE TO SCRATCHES AND DINGS. FOR LEAST RISK OF DAMAGE TO THE WIRE'S SURFACE, WE RECOMMEND USING NYLON JAW PLIERS WHENEVER POSSIBLE.

Make your own hanging artwork with these handmade blank paper scrolls. These blank scroll are perfect for invitations or for a unique birthday card where everyone can write a message on it.

The paper measures 8 inches wide and 14 1/2 inches long.

The beautiful hand crafted paper has nice fibers in the paper for a real artistic look and a white re-enforced border and real wooden dowels on the top and bottom. Slight imperfections are normal in this hand made paper and add to the charm!

Great for calligraphy, sumi-e drawings, guest lists, party invitations or school projects! You can also glue or attach your own art work to this to make your own wall hanging.

Hand made in Thailand.
