In the package they’ve included a snap on flash, a not so attractive shiny bag, in addition to a macro and telephoto lens.  And if you want to ‘add a touch of color’ to your photos you can pop in one of six colored lenses.  Expect it to go on sale for about $20. …Continue reading: DSi Studio Kit Adds Flash To Your DSi
