Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon BP511A 1390mAh Lithium Ion Battery Pack for Select Digital Cameras and Camcorders
Customer Review: It works
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't waste your time with the fake batteries. I bought a Targus clone for my 20D and the battery died within a year. Targus support is ignoring me. I should have just stuck with Canon batteries from the very start.Customer Review: Lasts for a long time
Summary: 4 Stars
This lasts for a longer time than I though possible on a Canon 30D, taking say 100 shots over a couple of hours per day it has lasted for about a week... I haven't really used the built-in flash but I do review every shot on the built in screen. It recharges in a couple of hours.
It's still a good idea to get a spare battery, just in case... I didn't feel comfortable buying a no-name battery for such a great camera; the bottom line is I did get over the initial sticker shock and this will prove to be good value for money if it continues like this in the medium and longer term.
Customer Review: Spend the extra money for this better product
Summary: 5 Stars
As a wedding photographer, I can't waste time swapping batteries all the time. I'll never buy the inferior fakes again. After 6 months the fakes don't hold a charge.
Yes the Canon battery costs more, but even after 4 yrs of continual use, it's still superior to the fakes.

have had this battery for a while now and it seems to work fine. Holds a charge for quite a while and I would recommend buying it again.Customer Review: long lasting
Summary: 5 Stars
the battery handles well, i was shocked when it drained after maybe 100-200 shots, but i realized i'm always using IS, autofocus and live view on my 40d that time, i was learning the functions of my new camera so it was drained right away, soon i'll be testing how many shots i could take with a full charge with this battery, my only complain is that it's expensive, canon is being not so reasonable here, they are not the one who's making the batteries and yet they price it too much.
