My initial experience with the battery was less than stellar — if you are currently disappointed with the battery capacity (especially if it’s new), hear me out. After the first charge out of the box, the single battery lasted about a day with maybe 100 RAW shots and a couple of minutes worth of 1080p video. VERY disappointing to say the least. But here’s the thing — it really needs to go through a couple of full cycles (full discharge, full charge) before it reaches its peak capability. At the time of my last charge, I had shot well over 2700 RAW frames on two batteries — and both of those batteries each reported 60% charge remaining at that point. Which brings me to the reporting features. If you are buying this as a second battery, then you are probably already aware of this, but the battery will report its charge level (with a 1% resolution), battery recharge performance, and number of shutter actuations since last charge. The 5D Mark II can then display this information on its Battery Info screen. With two LP-E6′s installed (via the BG-E6 Vertical Grip), the 5D Mark II will register both of the batteries and list their statistics simultaneously in the Battery Info screen. The Shutter Count numbers even operate independently. For example, after a long day of shooting (over 1500 frames), the Battery Info screen told me that Battery 1 was responsible for 806 frames, while Battery 2 was responsible for 746 frames. At this point, the batteries still showed a 78% charge on each one. Also notable is the fact that the number of shutter actuations for each battery does NOT reset when the battery is removed. Its actuation count is saved, and if you later reinsert the battery (without charging it), the count will still be accurate for that battery. Once you charge the battery, the count is reset. Finally, as a word of warning: At the time of this review (Jan 20, 2009), the battery prices are ridiculous. Because of high demand, apparently some sellers feel justified in gouging their customers. The current price listed as of this writing is nearly US$200. I bought my second battery before demand went through the roof, and I paid less than US$90 from a reputable Canon dealer. Keep that in mind when deciding where to purchase. 136 of 160 people found the following review helpful. If you don’t believe me, search the internet for the address that the seller is using: 3522 Flatlands Avenue, Brooklyn, NY. Interestingly enough, another camera business by the name of Fumfie also sold/sells camera equipment from the same Brooklyn storefront. Fumfie has a Better Business Bureau rating of ‘F’. Here is what other customers of Fumfie have had to say about this seller: “This is NOT a reputable seller.” upon receiving my camera today i saw it to be a “Grey market camera” i called Nikon and they didn’t even have a record of this camera. i then called and spoke with a gentleman from fumfi company that proceeded to blow a gust of wind up my ass the size of Dorthy’s tornado… “ “‘TOTAL CROOKS’ AND WILL NOT ANSWER MY E-MAILS.my next step is to get the law involved..” “In the end, it turns out that Fumfie is attempting to do what all the other scamming camera shops do: sell you overpriced accessories and force shipping insurance on you in order to make up for the advertised cheaper camera body.” Sunset Electronics also uses the same phone number as thefotosource.com, jerseyphotostore.com and Louscamera.com. Care to guess why a small store uses so many different aliases? Well, let’s see what people have to say about jerseyphotostore.com: “Seems like fraud company, people read the reviews before jumping into it.” “canon hf s200 is shown 689 in the site, but i was charged 762. Avoid these buggers like plague.” And on and on and on. These people are criminals. Do not buy from them. 129 of 159 people found the following review helpful. Why do you give the battery 1 star because third party sellers overcharge??? The battery happens to be EXCELLENT (hence, the 5 stars), but the ratings don’t show it because we all have to whine and complain about other stores’ prices. Incredible. OK, revelation for the day: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BUY IT HERE. WOW! What a concept! I would think that was obvious. If you are really, really frustrated by third-party stores overcharging (or Amazon for that fact), email Amazon and tell them. I have for other things and they respond very quickly. Let’s channel the right info where it belongs. |
