Canon Digital Camera Battery

Digital camera give wonderful experience in shooting or grabbing pictures. More professional photography like to shooting in long way from town, so they need many devices to support their hobby or job. Canon as one of the best photography camera producer has produce camera with high quality and low consumption energy. Although it low in consumption power, but we still need battery. Many improvement in battery, now there is Li-ion battery that can store more power and can be resist in long time. So it help professional photography in grabbing high quality of photo.

If you are liking to grabbing photo, it is better you prepare many li-ion battery that can store more power, or you will be loose your objects. Looking for battery, you can visit online store that can give you more information. When you decide to buy a digital camera battery, it is better you visit the store that sell your brand of your camera. And do not forget to suit it with your battery code.

Amazon store is on of the best online store. Now it exist in Europe too. I will review canon digital camera battery for you.

Canon LP-E6 Battery Pack for Select Canon Digital SLR Cameras

Technical Details

Amazon Customer Comments

In addition to the one that came with the 5D Mark II, I also bought a separate one to fill the second bay in the BG-E6 Vertical Grip.

My initial experience with the battery was less than stellar — if you are currently disappointed with the battery capacity (especially if it’s new), hear me out.

After the first charge out of the box, the single battery lasted about a day with maybe 100 RAW shots and a couple of minutes worth of 1080p video. VERY disappointing to say the least. But here’s the thing — it really needs to go through a couple of full cycles (full discharge, full charge) before it reaches its peak capability.

At the time of my last charge, I had shot well over 2700 RAW frames on two batteries — and both of those batteries each reported 60% charge remaining at that point.

Which brings me to the reporting features. If you are buying this as a second battery, then you are probably already aware of this, but the battery will report its charge level (with a 1% resolution), battery recharge performance, and number of shutter actuations since last charge. The 5D Mark II can then display this information on its Battery Info screen.

With two LP-E6′s installed (via the BG-E6 Vertical Grip), the 5D Mark II will register both of the batteries and list their statistics simultaneously in the Battery Info screen. The Shutter Count numbers even operate independently. For example, after a long day of shooting (over 1500 frames), the Battery Info screen told me that Battery 1 was responsible for 806 frames, while Battery 2 was responsible for 746 frames. At this point, the batteries still showed a 78% charge on each one.

Also notable is the fact that the number of shutter actuations for each battery does NOT reset when the battery is removed. Its actuation count is saved, and if you later reinsert the battery (without charging it), the count will still be accurate for that battery. Once you charge the battery, the count is reset.

Finally, as a word of warning: At the time of this review (Jan 20, 2009), the battery prices are ridiculous. Because of high demand, apparently some sellers feel justified in gouging their customers. The current price listed as of this writing is nearly US$200. I bought my second battery before demand went through the roof, and I paid less than US$90 from a reputable Canon dealer. Keep that in mind when deciding where to purchase.

Why do you give the battery 1 star because third party sellers overcharge??? The battery happens to be EXCELLENT (hence, the 5 stars), but the ratings don’t show it because we all have to whine and complain about other stores’ prices. Incredible. OK, revelation for the day: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BUY IT HERE. WOW! What a concept! I would think that was obvious. If you are really, really frustrated by third-party stores overcharging (or Amazon for that fact), email Amazon and tell them. I have for other things and they respond very quickly. Let’s channel the right info where it belongs.

Technical Details

Product Description

The “D” series incorporates double-element achromatic design for maximum optical performance. This close-up attachment can be used with most EF lenses to provide a shorter minimum focusing distance with no loss of light.

Changes closest focusing distance from infinity to 500mm (approx. 19.7″ from front of lens). The 500D works best with telephoto lenses from 70-300mm, manual focusing is recommended.

Amazon customer’s Comments

By Benzie

The Close Up lens is perfect for shoting flowers, bugs, fishes or items you want to sell on ebay :) , putting the lens might require some AE +1 compensation, just try and make some test shots before going out, also if you have IS, turn it on

By Paul

The Canon 500D 77mm Close Up Lens does the job for getting up close and personal. Highly recommended for macro if you have a 77mm lens. I use my Canon 20D DSLR and the Canon 100-400mm IS USM and the 500D works great with them.
