I decided to get another genuine Canon battery, having used 'after market' ones with no problems (so far ...) and when comparing with the battery that came with camera I noticed the writing was different. Not just the font, completely different wording. I found a forum post which indicates the new battery is genuine (the poster apparently contacted Canon who confirmed it was genuine).The biggest confidence booster was that the hologram on the packaging matches the one shown on both the US site and the UK site.------------------------------------------------------------Update Sep 2012: Just upgraded my camera and the battery that came with my shiny new camera is identical to the battery I bought

I bought these batteries as a back up to the one supplied with the camera previously purchased. Have found by experience, when out and about, like other photographers, it pays to have a reserve charged up battery ready to install in ones camera replacing the exhausted one. When attending any event, away from access to a mains powered battery charger, one can be taking many photos of an exciting event, when suddenly a warning signal indicates "Battery Low". Thus having a back up battery saves any frustration of not being able to continue taking a record of the full event.I bought the Canon batteries as I trust the quoted "Charge" retention values.

As usual with Amazon / related products, the flash-to-bang ordering and receipt was once again spot on. The battery was given the required charge and has been used extensively (still in the camera!) and has shown to be full of life. Certainly worth having as a spare for the EOS 550D. With the in-camera battery plus this one, all combinations of numbers of pictures can be taken...and more.

After reading earlier reviews I was keen to make sure this was the genuine article. Other reviewers had said the battery differed in appearance to their original. As far as I can tell this battery is identical in every way to my original and the packaging looked correct. The performance also matches.

I bought this in preparation for a holiday that would take in some expected temperature extremes and opted to purchase a Canon product for my quite new EOS 600. In temperatures that varied between -20 degress C and + 25 degress C this uniot operated without fail. All I could ask for really.

There is a big difference in price between Cannon Products and similar products that will do the job. Having spent £450 on a good Camera I felt it was silly to go with other products that possible could damage the camera so stuck with Canon. It is always good to have a 2nd charged battery.

Expensive hence four stars...other than that so far so great, charge it and leave it in the camera it never seems to run out. Bought a third party one for a 450D I've got and it swelled up to the extent it needed to be removed by snipe nosed pliers. Lesson learned!!!!

I bought this as a second / backup battery for the 600D I bought. Item was as described and sold at a good price. In my opinion, I think it's always better to buy the original maker's battery brand rather than a compatible brand despite higher cost.

It seems to be the exact same battery as came with the camera. It lasts incredibly long I think. I've never actually checked, but it seems to be at least over 500 pictures, which I think is a fantastic battery life for this type of camera.

I bought this genuine Canon replacement battery having read reviews of some of the alternative manufacturers products. It was still cheaper than buying from Canon directly and so far its working well in the camera.

I bought this as a spare needed as a back up should my current one fail in cold Arctic.I haven't used it yet but was pleased that it came in original branded packaging which has given me confidence in the item.

I needed an external power supply when working with the remote showing computer as the continuous live view drained the batterydoes what it says. no problem. full marks to supplier for prompt delivery.

This new battery is lighter in weight and battery life doesn't last as long as the original, but it works and fits perfectly so I've given it a 4 star rating, definately worthy as a back up.

Nothing worse than running out of battery power when out taking pictures. Bought this as a backup and it is very good. I would always recommend people take a spare battery.

This battery pack does the job as required, powering the camera for a decent amount of time with heavy use. I managed up to 4 days taking many pictures and HD video clips.
