| I use it for my old Canon30D. works great. I take hundreds of pictures and only a few times i had to use the spare. recharges very well, and quickly. |
Canon batteries sold by Vortex Cable appear to be counterfeit.

As mentioned by others, Vortex Cable seems to be selling counterfeit Canon batteries. The packaging is very convincing, almost the same as Canon's, but not quite. I ordered two batteries from Amazon (Vortex Cable) and two batteries from Adorama (after reading the most recent reviews of this item). The holographic label on Canon's package is completely different. The Vortex batteries fell out of the package, Canon's package must be torn apart to get to the batteries. The labels are slightly different. The Vortex batteries are shinier and darker, the cover does not stay on the Vortex batteries.
Buyer beware!!!!
Go to BH Photo Video or Adorama to be sure you're getting the real deal. Had I not read carefully and ordered additional batteries from Adorama for comparison, I would have not realized I paid full price for counterfeit junk.
Update; Vortex Cable was kind enough to refund the entire purchase price plus shipping. |
Don't Be Fooled, Buy The Original

| I was trying to save a couple bucks and I bought a few of the no-name brand batteries for my Canon DSLR. Never again! They loose their charge when you need them most. Stick with the Canon brand battery. It holds its charge much longer and will not randomly die on you. Batteries are definitely one of those things where you get what you pay for. Do not be fooled by the imitations. |
Love this item!

I purchased after market "just as good" batteries to replace aging Canon batteries that were 3 years old at the time. Now the original equipment Canon batteries that are over 4 years old are still running strong and have outlasted the after market batteries from a variety of vendors. Running a test with my Canon 20D camera by selecting "auto run" in slide show, the 4 year old original equipment batteries run 4 to 5 hours and the after market batteries run 1 to 3 hours after just one year of use. ( one after market battery is completely dead )
The old adage " you get what you pay for " really hold true for rechargeable Canon batteries. I will only purchase Canon Batteries for my Canon camera from now on. Save money in the long run. |
