Canon T4i - Accessories

Thanks a lot.. I ordered my T4i through Amazon and expected to get it on 11/27

Below are the items i ordered:

• T4i with 18-135 IS STM lens
• 55-250 IS - got it on deal as you mentioned for $70 .. wow!
• Hoya UV filter - $20
• Lens Hood - 67mm - Adorama brand (went with cheap one) - $8
• Amazon basics DSLR bag - free with T4i 
• $50 gift card for class room - free with T4i

Do you have any idea about how good the Amazon basics bag is? Also what to do with the $50 gift card Is there any good course for DSLR beginners?

One question still in my mind is, how good is T4i in handling minor water damage.. Since its winter, i have to take this cam out to take pictures during snow fall Let me know if you have any tips..

Thanks a lot man!
