Camera and accessories included in the full package kit of a recently purchased 15 megapixels Canon EOS 500D / Rebel T1i (USA) / Kiss X3 (Japan) Digital SLR camera. One caveat to the kit is the lack of a complimentary memory card. My advice is to separately purchase an SD or SDHC memory card(s) as well as a spare battery to get you started. The battery is the same LP-E5 type used by the Canon EOS 450D / Rebel XSi (USA) / Kiss X2 (Japan). Optional accessories are: Battery grip (same used by the 450D / XSi / Kiss X2), Remote Shutter Trigger, UV lens filter, polarizer lens filter, and a decent cone, crown, or petal-shaped lens hood for the kit lens. I rarely use the kit lens. (At the time of my purchase, the store only had the kit package and not the camera body by itself.) Instead, I switch between a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 Mark II prime lens, or an older Canon EF 35-70mm lens but at a 1.6x crop factor due to the APS-C size CMOS sensor utilized by the 500D camera unit. I hope all this information will be useful to consumers interested in purchasing the Canon EOS 500D / Rebel T1i (USA) / Kiss X3 (Japan) Digital SLR camera. .
