Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: can take lots of pictures before the battery drains

Weakness: none so far

I bought this battery as a backup battery and for the times when i cant easily charge up my other battery that came with my camera. I have been able to take over 400 pictures with my canon 20d camera before the battery was nearing the time to be recharged and that was with me using the lcd screen alot to go through different features of the camera. I would definately recommend this battery for...

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Extremely good capacity - 500-1000 pictures on one charge with normal use. Charges relatively quick in my G5 - about 90 minutes

Weakness: Very heavy. It'll weigh down your camera, but for the capacity it provides, I personally think it's worth it.

I bought this battery to have as a backup for the identical one that came with my Canon Powershot G5. The battery is fabulous. I've always been very displeased with the shooting capacity of digital cameras in general - they would run out of battery in a very short time. This battery was one of the deciding factors for me buying a Canon Powershot G5. According to a test on dpreview, it's the best...

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: As Good as the original Canon BP511.

Weakness: Right now no weaknesses. Only concern how many time I can recharge it?

I got a Canon Optura Xi with Canon original battery. This battery lasts about two hours with LCD opened. Almost as good as the original canon battery. To my surprise, the price is much cheaper and I will consider buying another one just for backup.

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Battery life

Weakness: packaging

The battery I purchased from sterlingtek (lithium ion rechargeable battery for BP-511)appears to be an excellent generic substitution for the Canon BP-511. It fully charged in the same time as the original Canon battery and held its charge for well over 200 photos on my G5 (with and without flash, lcd on). I plan to purchase another.

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Enough power to last for 1 day of regular use in a Canon G2

Weakness: Battery capacity does decrease over time, like any other rechargable battery

I have been using the BP-511 that came with my Canon G2. Perhaps because of its size, it has enough power for me to use my camera freely without worrying about battery life. It is more expensive than the generic ones, but like the Nokia's vs generic batteries case, there is a chance that those generic ones do not include circuit breakers and may kill your camera some day. Just spend a bit more...

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Long lasting

Weakness: None I can think of.

I use this battery with a Canon Digital Rebel, and I have literally taken 500 shots on 1 charge. This is head and shoulders about any other rechargeable batter that I have used. Kudos to Canon for this battery.

These batteries work great and they work with my battery charger. I haven't had a problem yet. The price was even better. I highly recommend these batteries.

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Works just fine

Weakness: None

Not much to write about a battery. Seems to do the job. You slip it in the charger and charge it up and your ready to go.

Canon Battery Pack BP-511 Rechargeable Camera Battery

Strengths: Last forever

Weakness: Way over priced. You can buy a 1300 mAh generic for as little as $9.99 or Pay as much as $80 for brand name Canon

Be smart & don't be fooled into thinking that the $80 brand name one is some how better. It's not. Similar to Circuit city selling you SOny iLink firewaire cable for $70 when you can buy generic firewire at newegg for $6.
