5 Stars works
This works and appears to perform as well as the battery that came with the camera.
5 Stars Great battery for great price
I priced a Duracell version of this battery at my local Big Box store…forty bucks! Need I say more?
5 Stars spare battery
product was delivered before promise and in good condition. battery has been charged and used and works fine.
1 Star It is cheap, but the quality is bad. The battery use time is very short after recharge.
I hope to purchase a more expensive one (probably Canon original version) to get more battery use time.
Canon NB 5L Battery Pack for Canon SD700IS SD790IS series Digital Cameras
The Canon NB-5L is a replacement rechargeable battery pack for the Canon Powershot SD700 and Ixus 800. Since it is an original Canon product, compatibility and quality is guaranteed. The lithium-ion chemistry makes the battery free from memory effect, yielding approximately 240 shots (LCD on) and 700 shots (LCD off) on a single charge and 360 minute playback time.

5 Stars Canon NB-5L Battery for Canon camera
I purchased a Canon camera a couple of years ago and a Canon battery came with it. I bought a couple of generic brand batteries to use as backup. After a very short time, the generic brand batteries would only keep a charge for about ten minutes or less. Having learned my lesson, I purchased this additional Canon NB-5L battery for my backup. It holds a long charge and is very reliable. Don’t waste your money on generic brands like I did, buy the name brand.
5 Stars One reliable battery!
I have tried the cheaper non-Canon brand batteries from several manufactures and none of them last very long. They all do well for the first 5 to 6 charges, but from then on they loose their charge quickly. However, with a true Canon battery it stays reliable for years. This has been true for all the different versions of the Canon batteries that I use. So I only buy Canon these days because they are cheaper in the long run. They just can’t be beat!
5 Stars Awesome backup battery
Lasts just as long as the original battery that came with my camera, which is about 3-7 days of heavy picture taking, so long as you’re responsible and turn off the camera between shots. For “normal” point and shoot, i could see this lasting a month without a recharge.
5 Stars Does the job. Well!
This is the original Battery pack from Cannon, as opposed to many of the alternatives available. This is my second replacement battery for an 890IS. I lost my first spare at a party and bought this one as a replacement. I later found the lost battery after it had gone through a wash and dry cycle in a pant pocket! It still works just as well as before. Great product!!
The only reason for not buying one of the alternatives was the fact that most of the alternatives seemed to have at least a few negative reviews and for the cost difference I did not want to get into a “situation”, however low the probability.
5 Stars Speedy delivery
Prompt acknowledgement of order and delivered expeditiously as promised. No hassle involved! Would recommend to others and would do business again!

5 Stars Great Deal!
This battery does the same job at one-eighth the price of the manufacturer’s battery it replaces. How can you go wrong?!
5 Stars Keeps on snapping
Works well in my Rebel XT–I was able to shoot wildlife all day without having to change batteries–hundreds of photos.
5 Stars Worked perfectly in US and Africa
I purchased 2 of these batteries to take with me on a trip to Africa. Initially I was concerned about buying a non Canon battery, especially considering my destination. I did not want to be caught without a working battery on Safari. I bought 2 of these (still cost less than 1 Canon battery) a couple of weeks before I left and had some time to test them. They charged and worked exactly the same as the Canon brand battery. On my trip, they did not disappoint. The batteries recharged just fine with my Canon charger and a UK power adapter while in Africa. I would definitely recommend this product.
1 Star Won’t hold a charge
Although it was a fabulous price for an extra battery to have on hand, it won’t hold a charge and I can’t get it to charge enough for the red light on the charger to turn to green. A great price isn’t great if I never get to use the product.

5 Stars Better than I expected
Been using this battery now for over 3 months with my T1i.
Holds its charge a looong time. I haven’t timed it, but it feels at least twice as long as the standard battery.
…and you can’t beat the price.
Advice: if you’re looking to get an extra battery, get this one.
5 Stars Works just fine – excellent value
Having a new camera for taking pictures of museum artifacts (primarily), I needed spare batteries to “feed my flash.” Problem was that the OEM battery (Canon) was ~$70 USD each which would reduce the number of spares I could pack. Also, the OEM charger was AC only, so would not allow for recharging while in transit. Opteka to the rescue! Inexpensive batteries and a dual AC & DC charger fit my needs exactly. I used the batteries for all day shooting of museum aircraft (lots of flash usage) and they performed at least as well as the OEM battery. Recharging was quick also, being less than 90 minutes in the car, so I could always have charged batteries on hand. Excellent value and performance overall, highly recommended for the amateur photog, perhaps even for the pro. Didn’t try the Opteka batteries in the Canon wall-charger as I was the Opteka charger, so cannot comment on capability. I recommend the charger & battery combination anyway because of the DC car plug.
1 Star The marked voltage worries me a great deal
The Canon Xsi ships with, and is rated for, a 7.4v battery. This is listed as 7.2v on the box, the battery and on the Opteka website. I was told by a Marketplace Vendor that the 7.2v is a “misprint,” but there is no way of truly knowing and it’s enough to make me worry. I’d hate to damage a $$$$ camera over a $ battery. This one is going in the garbage and I’m going with the Canon Equivalent LP-E5 Battery which is marked with the correct information (7.4v!), has a solid reputation, and is currently selling for a better-than-amazon price on Diamondback Battery’s website.
2 Stars got what you paid for
Fully charged it after some use of it already and seems as if it has the memory effect. The XSi camera’s battery icon shows it has at least half of the juice left before the camera stops working. Well, you trade 1/2 of the battery capacity for 3/4 of the cost. A good deal? In the shooting field, you may have twice the chance to have to change the battery at that monemt you wish you were not, like I was. Not sure if other 3rd party batteries more or less the same issue…..
5 Stars Decent for the money
Not as good as Canon, but for the money this will work great for a backup battery! I would say it lasts about 75% as long, and have not had any problems with it.

5 Stars Better than canon-I love it
I have had this battery about a week and used it every day. Works great and still fully charged. Pleased beyond words.
I have had nothing but problems with the Canon battery that came with my new camera. After a dozen photos it would go dead. After sitting fully charged in my camera for a week unused would be dead when I wanted to use it. I seldom used my camera because of this. Canon charges around [...]60 bucks for the same battery-just has their name on it. Can’t go wrong at this price.
4 Stars So far, so good
haven’t had it that long (so only gave it a 4), but works great so far – using as a backup to the cannon battery. Great value based on price and performance so far. Arrived very quickly, great service.
5 Stars Great Replacement Battery
I’ve only had this battery for a short time, but it appears to work just as well as the OEM battery. I can’t believe how much less expensive it is than the name-brand battery, so I’m thrilled to get such a great deal!
5 Stars They work, and they’re cheap
They work and they cost much less than the Canon batteries. My digital elf can’t tell the difference.
1 Star Did not work in SD1200IS
Based on positive reviews here, I bought this along along with an SD1200IS. It worked one time but subsequent attempts to use it in the camera elicited “Change battery pack” message on screen. Be warned.
