    It's the authentic Sony brand battery. Generic products in my opinion can't match Sony. I've gone through 2 generic batteries on a7r2 within a couple hours while Sony's battery still got lot of charge. Sony batteries life span through recharging is without doubt superior to generic's. Not to mention Peace of mind using Sony battery you don't have to worry about generic battery overheating, expanding or generics. The price you pay for Sony though higher than generic brands will out perform it in performance, life span Safety and dependability.

    Same Battery that Comes with my Camera

    This is the authorized battery from Sony for my Sony A6400 camera. Unfortunately, the Sony A6xxx series of mirrorless cameras don't have the best battery life. While photography is just a hobby for me, if I am going on a vacation where I will be taking a lot of pictures, it is a good idea to have a backup battery available to ensure that I can still get the shot at the end of the day. This is the same battery that comes with my camera. So, it is great as a backup battery or a replacement.

    this is perfect for those with Sony cameras! double check the type of sony battery you have but I have the Sony ZV-E1 and this was great for a back up battery if you're shooting long shoots.

    Initially, I had planned to purchase this at Amazon. Then I read the horror stories... some buyers had received knockoffs labeled as Sony, batteries getting too hot, batteries dying shortly after first use, etc. Even though I wanted the battery earlier, I decided to take the safe route. I knew I could get the true OE item from Best Buy. Battery performs wonderfully, and I can get well over 1200 shots before I'm down to the last bar.

    Sony NP-FW50 Batteries and Charger

    Both the batteries and the charger perform as expected - they were purchased to supplement a new Sony Alpha 7RII camera. I trust purchasing them from Best Buy online and picking them up at my local store rather than buying through Amazon due to the plethora of fake batteries being sold through many online retailers.

    I bought this so I wouldn't be caught without a freshly charged battery. While there are other brands available for your Sony, why risk compatability issues and charge indicator errors. Unless you never stray from home with your camera, a spare battery is a necessary item to have. After a shoot, I rotate my batteries from camera to charger and install my freshly charged one in camera. That way, my camera is ready to go when I am. I will grab my other battery from the charger on the way out the door.

    This is a must to allow multiple camera batteries when traveling. I usually have three batteries so that i dont miss shots due to battery going dead. Easy to use. Plugs into wall socket and when light turns green it is fully charged.
