 watch for fakes October 18, 2008
i bought some low price batteries, which i thought were a decent deal. i bought five. they worked ok in the beginning.
after aprox 5-6 cycles 1 battery was not recognized by the camera. and the others had a short life.li batteries should not crystalize and have a memory.
just keep all the paperwork and packaging until you know you have a good battery. even the real thing can have problems.
by the way i work for a living w/ rechargable battery products.
This battery belongs in your camera bag! October 16, 2008
If you shoot with a Sony Alpha, it is a good idea to keep a spare battery in your bag. That isn't to suggest that the NPFM500H doesn't hold up well in the field. In fact, I find that I regularly get several hundred images from a single charge, and that includes extensive previewing of images on the LCD.
Still, when the battery becomes fully discharged, it takes several hours to recharge it. Which is why you should carry an extra battery. If your primary battery loses charge you have a backup that will allow you to continue shooting. The beauty of lithium-ion batteries is that they maintain their charge over long periods of storage. So you can keep a spare in your bag for months and be confident that it can still power your camera.
In addition, if you purchase a Sony vertical grip for your dSLR Sony VG-B30AM Vertical Grip for Sony Alpha Digital SLRs, Sony VG-C70AM Alpha Vertical Grip or Sony VG-B30AM Vertical Grip for Sony Alpha Digital SLRs you will need a second battery as all three grips are powered by two NPFM500H packs.
I actually got a deal by buying the Sony ACC-AMFM11 Accessory Kit (Includes NP-FM500H Rechargeable Battery Pack and LCS-SC11 Case) for the Sony Alpha Digital SLR. This gave me a decent bag and a spare battery at a combination price.
Sony NPF500H October 3, 2008
Seems to last longer than the NPFM50 I used in my previous camera.
Could be that the camera is more power efficient, however.
It's the real deal September 16, 2008
Just slightly cheaper than buying from Sony direct - especially if you get free shipping!
This is a brand new original Sony battery in a Sony package.
I don't know of any knock offs that work and wouldn't be very inclined to buy one anyway - especially since all the new Sony DSLRs have excellent battery life.
Great Product September 15, 2008
This is a great product and definitely recommend it to Sony DSLR users. Go OEM on batteries for sure.
