Knowledgable Rep
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery in my camera would drain relatively quickly. I bought this back-up battery. While purchasing the battery, the sales person told me about a firmware upgrade for my camera that would extend the battery life. I performed the upgrade and got a bonus -- extended battery life on my original battery as well as the back-up battery I purchased!
I would recommend this to a friend Great for the price!

Great Replacement Battery
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed an extra battery for my Sony Alpha mirrorless digital camera and this fit the bill. I looked at the no-name batteries but was unsure of their quality, so I stuck with Sony. Best Buy price matched another retailer, so I was able to get the lowest price possible. The battery has served me well for the past month and I expect long life out of it.

Great Battery with the A7S ii
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using the battery with my A7S ii I get over an hour (about 1.5hr) shooting video in 4k and powering the Sony XLR-K2M & Sony FE PZ 28-13mm f/4 G OSS lens. I would recommend spending the money and getting the Sony brand and not risk the cheaper alternatives. The A7S ii comes with 2 batteries, if you buy 2 more you should be good to go all day!

Long charge holding battery
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this as an extra battery for recent two week family vacation. Charged battery before leaving for trip. While out and about on vacation about 10 days in needed to use back up battery. Was very pleased to see this battery still maintained a 100% charge and was ready to go. This was approximately 2 1/12 weeks after being charged for the first time.

Great Extra Battery
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an extra battery. I took 240 pictures with plenty power to spare.. The battery takes a long time to charge. I bought a sony external charger to charge the batteries. It is recommended that even though all three lights are illuminated on the charger, that you wait until there is no lights indicating that the battery is fully charged..

I would recommend this to a friend Your gonna need it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have a sony alpha from 5100-6500 then your going to need at least 2 more of these battery if your going to take pictures and video all day. I have a total of 4 batteries when i go out to a photoshoot. Worst thing as a phtographer is having a photo shoot with a nice camera and a G master lens with dead batteries lmao.. if you have a sony a6600 and above then this battery is not for you. Get the external charger too that goes on the wall outlet so you can charge the other battery while you use a different one.

Good Backup Battery
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this extra battery as a backup because I was going to be taking pictures in very cold conditions, and wanted to have enough juice for my camera. I am glad I did because I ended up using it. I really recommend this

Buy factory batteries only
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I made a wise move buying factory batteries for my Sony Mirrorless camera. Aftermarket are appealing for price and the fact that you get a working battery. But the factory battery last a lot longer in time and in number of charges before it dies. They are double the cheap aftermarket batteries.

Awesome Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are purchasing a camera and they are offering bundle prices, don't miss out on having an extra battery. Never know when you may need one. It's great for the price I paid, and I can take it with me when I go on trips to make sure I have enough battery life to take amazing pictures with my Sony A5100.

Great Battery
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lasts a while on my A6400 taking pictures. I can’t comment on making videos with it but I haven’t had a problem with battery life on my camera. I bought just to have a backup and be able to charge my dead battery and slip a spare right into my camera so there’s no down time ever.
