Bought as a gift for the daughter of a friend. She loved it. Great value.
If you take a lot of pictures or use the flash alot, you may want to have 2 of these as your backup and always charge them up once your low battery indicator light starts to flash. Everyone else's review swayed me towards this battery as a backup for my Canon SX200. Not a bad product for the price. Used it on a trip to Australia and although it did not last as long as the OEM battery, it did its job of keeping the camera going when the other one needed charging. Using this battery in rotation with another should be fine for most users. Also, the longer you keep this battery on the charger, the longer a life it seems to have (up to 2 days max- after that, it is pretty much topped off). Can be re-charged in your OEM Canon battery charger.
This battery looks and works just like the Canon battery that came with my new Canon PowerShot SX200IS. Highly recommend the battery back up for use on vacations.
Seems to hold a charge as well as the Canon battery.Will have to wait and see if it lasts as long.You could buy several of these for the price of the Canon.
Bought as a back up battery for my Canon SD 890IS in May 2009. After reading other reviews, seems i am not the only one who had this issue. So i thought the battery is a defect and contacted the warranty department of Lenmar.
I charged it to full but the camera would say "change the battery pack". It completely makes no sense to return this junk. I hadn't needed to use it until last weekend when I went on a 4-day trip.
I was told i need to pay for both the returning battery and the shipping of the new replacement since it's more than 90 days of purchase, which would cost more than i have paid on Amazon, regardless it's my first time using the battery after the purchase. Then i recharged the original Canon battery, and it worked fine, which means that it's not the camera or charger's problem, but the Lenmar battery's. I kept it with my camera and the original Canon battery together in a cool and dry corner of my home.
But lessons learned, I will NEVER buy this brand again. So buy at your own risk as you may get one of the useless piece of junk.
