Canon Battery Pack NB-13L

It's a Canon battery, so it does cost more. It doesn't make the camera unhappy like aftermarket batteries do.

This is the battery made for Cannon cameras. It works fine, but costs nearly twice as much as a similar battery from another company.

Camera Batteries purchased for a special event. I found them cheaper on Amazon than anywhere else.

I previously tried a generic version of this battery. This battery lasts longer and charges more quickly. This appears to be a genuine OEM replacement as opposed to some of the look alike versions of this item that are much cheaper and ship directly from China.

I bought this as an extra battery for my cannon camera. Works well without problems!

Would I buy the cheaper $19 battery or this $43 original OEM battery for my Canon G7X Mark II?The cheaper battery's price is so enticing (plus a lower sales tax) that it seemed to be the logical choice.But, would the $24 price difference give me some peace of mind? Or, an assurance that it will perform and last like the original?In the end, I went to buy the original replacement battery for my Canon G7X MKII camera.Had I purchased a cheaper camera, then, purchasing a cheaper battery would be an easy decision.The battery I received came in the sealed, original box (with hologram) and after opening, it came inside a plastic bag with a protective white plastic cover for the terminals and a folded manual/instruction sheet.Out of the box and using the external charger, it took about 2 hours to fully charge it.No errors, no warnings, no worries, no headaches - it simply worked as it should - just like the original that came with the camera.Now, I have peace of mind knowing that I have a reliable back-up battery for the camera during my travels.

Love the two battery charger. It is fast and keeps my batteries charged.

Wanted an extra Canon made battery for my new and not cheap camera. I was nervous about getting the battery here because of stories about poor quality cheap batteries and counterfeits. This is the real Canon product. The gold hologram sticker is small and hard to see, but turned in the light it shows colorful squiggles and pops the word "genuine" all over. Worth the extra money for peace of mind.
