I am an amateur photographer and have done a few weddings for friends and I do have to say I prefer the Canon battery over other generic batteries for this EOS camera. These batteries have served me well in outdoor photography in Alaska, Hawaii and in the Caribbean, as well as, special event portraits. I can take about 600-700 photographs with this battery, while a few batteries I got from a secondary company lasted only 100-150 shots and not to mention they threw off my timing with my 430EX flash. I definitely recommend the Canon NB-2LH for Canon original equipment. My recommendation in always to have two batteries. I personally have had my original battery from canon for over three years and it has taken over 10,000 photographs and still going strong.
A few years ago, I bought a cheap generic replacement battery for my Digital Rebel.Big mistake, now it won't take a charge.So I bought a replacement Canon NB-2LH. Battery charged great and works perfectly.Battery arrived on time and perfect working order.Would definitely do business with them again.
I'm a professional photographer and have to have good batteries. I tried one of the cheap off-brand replacement batteries, and advise against it. All the shots in my book, A Simple Guide To Fabulous Photography (link attached), were taken with this battery. I take a lot of shots and carry two spare batteries. They don't last or perform nearly as good as this Canon original. Well worth the extra money to get this one.A Simple Guide To Fabulous Photography
Now, I will admit that I have not had any problems with the batteries I purchased here, yet. I own a real and original Canon battery like this I purchased, except it is real. As far as this vendor, they were very nice and curteous. The orginal Canon battery will have the codes and description of the battery etched in the plastic battery casing and will be made in Japan. These batteries have the codes and descriptions printed in ink on the plastic casing (which rub right off) and are made in China. You get what you pay for. The real deal is going to cost you more, so it is up to you if price is the determining factor or if you want the real deal.
I have a Canon Rebel purchased a few years ago, and had lost my extra battery. Not wanting to go without, I bought this battery. It has more capacity than the one that came with the camera, and, as with the fist one, lasts a really long time. I have been taking pictures and leaving the camera on and ready for the last three weeks with my new granddaughter, and it is still at full charge.
