5 Stars awesome battery
i’ve been bumping up my canon HF10 and its strange but this battery is one of my favorite things in my camera bag because this thing last forever. i was using my camera from 8am till 6pm, on and off. but it lasted all day.

5 Stars Everything as it is supposed to be
Fine battery, works well and everything is as it is supposed to be. Love it.

5 Stars Great Battery Life
This battery is a must have if you have a video camcorder. It has about 4-hrs of usage time and so I don’t have to worry about a dead battery. Plus you can review videos and keep the camcorder on pause rather than having to turn off the power all the time.

The original equipment battery is now a spare/backup.

5 Stars Battery Pack for Canon of great benefit
During extensive filming, this battery pack provided reliable use of the Vixia HG20 for many hours. While the battery pack extends beyond the end of the camera when attached, it does not cause a problem in handling the camera nor does it look objectionable. The battery that comes with the HG20 is very short lived and the camera would be of limited value without this option.

5 Stars Must have item!!!!
This battery is great and a must have if you plan to record long sporting events.

1 Star Battery wasn’t charged and won’t charge!
This battery would not turn the camera on, so I charged it in the charger that came with the camera and it still won’t turn the camera on. I would return it but I don’t have the original packaging. Don’t buy one!

1 Star Low Capacity
The battery I purchased does not hold very much charge. It lasts about 25% of the time for the “Canon” brand battery. It could be that I got unlucky, but I suspect that it just is a cheaply made battery with bad manufacturing tolerances.

ps: I do analysis of energy efficiency for consumer goods for a living, and have thought a lot about batteries.

1 Star Be aware of the “Best Value”
Lenmar DLC4L Lithium-ion Digital Camera/Camcorder Battery Equivalent to the Canon NB-4L Battery.

I ordered this battery so that I would always have a spare one.

Always beware of the “best value” (buy together today). It is not always the best value. I was charged $34.99 for the battery and $10.95 for shipping for a total of $45.94. Then I found the same battery, available for $19.95 with free shipping for prime customers. Definitely learned a big lesson with this purchase.

5 Stars Great replacement battery!
I purchased this battery as a spare for my SD1100IS, and have taken it on a dive vacation using the camera and an underwater housing for scuba diving pics. Underwater photography involves heavy use of the LCD monitor and flash while underwater. The battery easily lasted through each two-tank dive outing plus some picture reviews on the boat, charged right up afterwards, and was ready to go for the next outing.

1 Star Lenmar DLC4L Lithium-ion Digital Camera/Camcorder Battery
I wanted to replace my several-year old Canon battery that is having a short life. Upon receiving the Lenmar battery I charged it completely and alas, it only lasted 20 pictures in my camera. I discharged it completely and did a complete charge again. It still dies quickly, even worse than my old OEM Canon battery.

I understand that I may have just gotten a bad battery and I will order another one. If it works as well as OEM Canon batteries, then I’ll write another review with 4 or 5 stars to balance out my 1-star review here.

1 Star BEWARE! The item is listed as available but is actually on back order
BEWARE! The item is listed as available but is actually on back order.

this is not stated anywhere on the page. i called once and was told no problem, will ship in indicated time, now the price went up and when i called i was told it is on back order. considering that i need this for a trip, this is not good for me. I wish Amazon would put this up front so the customers would not be mislead.

The rating is not for the battery but for Amazon’s lack of consideration for its customers to disclose pertinent information.

5 Stars worked great
I purchased this battery pack for my Barbados trip and I have to say it worked very well. I just charged it up at night so it would be ready to go the next day. It lasted long enough for me to film everything I needed film; I used it as an extra backup battery.

5 Stars Canon BP-819 for Canon HF-S100
This is a great battery. It is only a fraction bigger (1/8″ to 3/16″ estimate) than the original that came with the camcorder. Based on other reviews I was really concerned about the size and weight of this battery. My old camcorder had an extended life battery 2.5 x the size of the standard battery, so after going forth and back for two days I decided the worst that can happen is to return it and loose the shipping costs. I use 16GB cards and could not run the battery down with one of these cards (80 min). This is the battery that should have been included with the product, but I assume that is how they make their money. They know everybody will by the extended battery. I found the best price at Amazon and would highly recommend buying this item. Two of these would be great, but for now I’ll use this one as my main battery and the one that came in the box as a backup.

5 Stars Massive added power!
The battery that came with my Canon HF-10 was a great battery but I knew right away I needed some additional power if I was going to be serious about filming. This high capacity battery is incredible and is a MUST for anyone taking video. I also liked the size as it gave me a place to rest my thumb when holding by hand.

If you are serious about filming then this is the battery you need to get you through the day. Don’t forget you will also have your battery that came with the camera so know you are equipped for just about anything. Great job Canon, love your products!!!

4 Stars Good Performance
I bought this product for a Canon Vixia HF10. It works good, but it does stick out from the back a little bit. It also comes with a cover for the contacts that you can put on the battery that came with the camera while using this one. I would have given it 5 stars if it didn’t stick out as far, but it does work good and also works with the battery life display feature built into the camera (some generic batteries won’t).

5 Stars Great deal
We bought a new JVC camera, wanted an extra battery and found this one on Amazon. It was $60 cheaper than at Best Buy. Very pleased with my purchase.

5 Stars Don’t forget this item~!
If you buy the camcorder, buy the big battery and the charger. We were gone for 11-days and only had to charge this battery once.

5 Stars long lasting battery
This battery is nice when recording long day of activities and play back. I would recommend this battery it is big but the benefits far out weighs the negative response for this battery.

5 Stars Definitely an asset!
The battery is twice as long as the original, and sticks out the back in a big way. It even double the weight of the camera! But here’s the rub: even with the extra weight, the whole camera is still amazingly light! And since it uses the large LCD window for viewing, and has no viewfinder, the extra length is in consequential. My only minor issue was that it now take two hands for me to switch between video and still mode since I can’t wrap my paw around the longer battery.

Bottom line: very nice to have the substantially longer recording time, and the extra size is of no significant consequence.

5 Stars WORKS GREAT
works great, easy to use, dont hesitate to get one. I have yet to actually use the battery until drained, but it charges fine and lasts a long time. careful with those knock-off batteries dont spend money on garbage.

5 Stars Name-brand battery worth the extra bucks…
I am a professional photographer. Every one of the eight non-Canon brand batteries I have (four different brands)outlived their warranties by only a few days. None of the six Canon brand batteries I own have ever given me any problem of any kind. One of my Canon Batteries is at least four years old and still performs beautifully. I will never buy a non-Canon battery for my Canon camera again.

4 Stars Get what you pay for
Plain and simple: The battery holds up. It takes a charge and holds a charge. Some cheap batteries have a higher mAH rating, but if they can’t hold the charge, they’re not meeting the need. Past experience with other Canon batteries for other cameras convinced me that I couldn’t afford to go cheap. However, I still can’t give 5 stars because of the price.

3 Stars Overpriced, under powered.
I got this battery with my 40D camera. It works fine, but I have to recharge it every second or third day of use. I just carry my camera with me when I walk my dog or going fishing, and occassionally for some macro shots in my back yard; so I may take an average of 10-12 shots a day without flash. Maybe I use the LCD too much, I don’t know. What I do know is that I don’t even get close to the number of photos the camera manual states I should. On the other hand, I have a high-end, high-power bicycle headlight that takes a slightly larger 2400 mAh Lithium Ion battery that will cost me $29.95 with free shipping to replace from the bike light company. It is still going strong after 2 years and many recharge cycles. If they can sell a premium quality, higher powered battery for much less, why can’t Canon? Because we are paying too many dollars for the Canon name, that’s why! Canon sells their cameras for a reasonable price, but they really make their money on their over-priced accessories.

5 Stars Right time and Right place.
I’m satifsited with the item. Nothing damage there and here. Delivery arrived earlier than expected date, though.

5 Stars BP511A Li-ion battery for Canon 40D
Reliable and quality product. This battery maintains its charge for a very long time and delivers the amount of power necessary for about 300 pictures RAW on my Canon 40D (without flash).
