Digital Camera Canon Powershot Review

I refuse to Pay CANON $46.00 for these batteries! I have purchased 44 canon Elph Cameras so far and never have less than two batteries with me at all times. I paid about $15.00 here and this allows me to have three on hand for the price of one. I have a car charger and the normal charger and never ruin an event by running out of battery to allow for a great shoot...no limits in power available all day!
I also use Amazon to buy the Digital Elf KIT which gives you a genuine CANON battery and the Leather Case and a very nice Metal Neck Strap, for around $48.00. That is a Combination and a price that you cannot beat anywhere! Thanks Amazon, R F Hauser 1400mAh NB-5L / NB5L Replacement Battery for Canon PowerShot SD700 IS, SD790 IS, SD800 IS, SD850 IS, SD870 IS, SD890 IS, SD900, and SD950 IS - Japanese Cells

I am using this battery with my Canon PowerShot SD990 IS and it is equal to if not better than the Canon OEM battery which would have cost me $58.
This is a really good value!

I tried to save a few bucks and bought a couple of these generic "Wasabi Power" batteries. Advertised as containing Japanese cells, these batteries are manufactured in China. Despite having an alleged rating of 1400mAh (compared to Canon's 1120mAh) these batteries - fresh out of the charger - only lasted about half the time compared to the original Canon battery. If you need a relatively inexpensive backup battery when you need to squeeze out a few more shots, then you could probably make do with these. However, if you plan on shooting for any appreciable amount of time, I suggest biting the bullet and paying Canon a little more money for the OEM replacement. At least you know it will be reliable.

This battery is not expensive. Even though it is rated at 1400mAh it doesn't last as long as the 1100mAh battery that came with the camera. Still it was worth the price and it gets me through about a day which provides plenty of time to charge the other one.

The battery that was shipped has a different brand. It was Wasabi Power with BTR-0NB5L-JWP part number.
I charged it and put it into my SD790. It worked great. I will need to do more testing to review how the 1400 mAh compared the to the orginal 1120mAh.

less expensive, been using it occasionally for a year without problem. We often seem to need a spare battery.

I was expecting a decent replacement battery for this price (>$14). It says 1400mAh, but it is not even close to the original 1140mAh battery. I've charged it several times, but once put in the camera, a few pictures later, camera is flashing the "battery depleted" icon. Will return it!

I was going on vacation and needed an extra battery with little time to shop, so i went to the amazon site where i always do my shopping. Need an extra battery in a hurry, to my amaze it came on time and everything as promise was done.

Thank you all for such a quick turn around service, excellent customer service.

Thank you
