    Always good to have an extra battery, especially with the a7 because oi the WiFi. I suggest putting the camera in airplane mode before going out to shoot as it will really deplete the battery if left on. Like I said, always smart to have an extra battery.

    It’s necessary but it is expensive. I wouldn’t use a third party battery.

    Excellent choice. Although after market batteries are much cheaper, it comes at the expense of faster power depletion and incompatibilty issues. Don't let your workflow suffer, go with an original Sony battery.

    Purchased as a back up for my Sony A7ii. The Sony A7ii doesn't have great battery life so a backup battery was needed. I can easily make it through a full day now with 2 batteries and not have to worry about it.

    I purchased an off brand extra battery when I purchased my Sony camera from Best Buy. The price was considerably lower but it also "died" in about one year. I learnt a big lesion as I was ready to shoot a wedding and had no power.
