I'm pretty sure all Amazon links posted here correct to the affiliate link.

Honestly I wouldn't bother the lenses and the body are good, everything else is just filler junk which is where they are making their profit.

 

Buying decent tripods, filters, bags etc pay off in the long run and you don't need all of that straight away.

Dont bother buy a body on its own and everything else on its own. If you buy a cheap tripod you will never ever use it.

And also the same for the rest of the cheap junk.

[StormtrooperStu]

Most of that junk you will never use. Also all the little filters and macro parts are very cheap anyway.

There is a lot of "bloatware" in that kit.  Other than the bag, lenses and camera, you are better off saving up for better accessories. Even the bag might not be up to par...

As most have noted, most of that will be useless for you. Also important to note, they are likely not an authorized seller which means you will not have warranty support.  Nikon has a pricing agreement with their authorized sellers that means they all have to sell it for the same price.  This is why pretty much all authorized sellers are usually within a few dollars of each other.  To entice people to buy from them they will throw in cheap just that doesn't really cost anything to them to make it seem like a good deal. This listing however because of how low it is priced is likely not authorized (grey market) so be careful.
