Lasts several hundred pictures on D700 with preview on and occasional use of VR-feature on several lenses.
Overall highly recommended!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

It is great to have a backup battery. I was always trying to anticipate the battery levels, having a spare seems to make my original one last longer. There are numerous aspects of a shoot that I want to control worrying about battery power shouldn't be one of them. This product elliminated that.

Use these in a Nikon D70s with no problems. can't say that about the extra
battery that came with the camera, a Cannon battery.

I use this battery in a Nikon D90 with a f/2.8 70-200mm VR lens. I can shoot in the range of 800-850 shots with one charge. I am very pleased with this battery!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Just like the battery that comes with the camera. Works well, holds charge, does everything a battery should. :)

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

As always the Nikon batteries perform as expected.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

It is more expensive than the generic batteries out there but it is worth the price. I have two generic (non-Nikon) EN-EL3e batteries and none of those lasts longer than the Nikon brand.

Spare yourself the frustration. Do not waste your money in untested and cheap batteries!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Definitely superior to off-brand batteries. The D700's "Live View" eats up battery life so I use that feature sparingly.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

It does what it should. I'm finally buying a third battery for my D200 since I have the grip that holds two at a time and the original battery is starting to lose some of it's staying power.

The product was easy to use and was what I expected and read from Adorama's product description.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

This is a definite must get item for back up if you plan to do all day shoots. I used mine while on vacation and kept it in rotation with another one and put my mind at ease from worrying about having enough charge in a battery to last the day. I highly recommend at least one back up battery.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Works out of the box, charges quick, lasts how it's supposed to. It's worth the extra few bucks for a genuine Nikon battery for the warranty alone.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Adorama has this Nikon Battery at a fantastic price!! At least $30 below the prices of the other places I checked locally. And it's a Nikon and not some off brand that I hadn't heard of before (and the off brand was the one that was more $$$) I purchased this as a back up battery for when I travel or am out and about shooting. Would hate to miss that "perfect" picture !!!!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

It's totally worth the cost to pay for the genuine (non-third party) batteries. The product is reliable and long lasting. The trick is to keep your batteries charged frequently. Shallow frequent charge will help the life of the batteries.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I considered getting one of the non-nikon batteries, but the reviews weren't very good, so I paid a little extra and got this one.

Folks, it's a battery. It does what it's supposed to do. This particular battery seems to last forever. I'm just a casual photographer, but I've been shooting for almost a month without a recharge. (Granted, I do mostly available-light photography, so my flash usage is minimal.)

It works and it's an official Nikon one. For my last camera, I used a Targus... talk about something that had less power and just was not durable. It would die fairly quickly.

I needed an extra battery for a trip to Africa. I was tempted to buy the off- brand but it's ridiculous to take the chance that it might not be up to par. The Nikon battery works as expected but I didn't expect any different.

This battery works very well with my Nikon D50. I have used it for over 400 cycles before needing to be recharged. A perfect match!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

These batteries last a long time. I'm starting to shoot more and more and have since added the MB-D200 battery pack to my D200 just for the added power. I just wanted that added insurance to be able to shoot much much longer before I will have to worry about batteries going down.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

A lot of the non Nikon batteries have different voltages some less some more - it will void your warranty on your camera also for using them ... just not worth the little savings

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

If you own a Nikon camera then why go cheep on the battery? Having a second battery is always a good idea so you don't miss any shots. If you're going to have a second battery why shouldn't it be as good as the original. By using an OEM battery I don't have to worry about changing back after a recharge like some do with only a backup battery.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Works excellently as expected. Please note the following:

Battery Storage - If you don't plan on using the battery for a month or more, store it in a clean, dry, cool place away from heat and metal objects. Li-Ion batteries will self-discharge during storage.

Do not let the battery fully discharge (less than 5%). Do not recharge the battery if the level is 90% or higher since capacity may eventually be reduced by up to 5%. Charge the battery when it is between 20% and 80% full.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

While compatible products can be as good or sometimes better than the OEM's items, I often prefer the manufacturer's products on electronics. This is no exception. I purchased this battery as a spare and it's been terrific. The battery lasts and lasts and I know that both [...] and Nikon will stand behind my purchase.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

It is perfect for the Nikon D700. However, as with all these batteries, it is not compatible with any other non Nikon Camera. Therefore , if Nikon ceases to manufacture this battery we will have a problem. By this reason, it may be advisable to purchase a battery holder that permit to use AA batteries with the D700.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I have not tried generic batteries with my D80, only these Nikon batteries, which I am very pleased with.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Just received this but is identical to one received with DSLR few years back. Seems to work great, same as the one that came with the camera (D200).

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Got caught this summer while shooting a concert without a spare battery. Bought this along with the MB-200 battery grip. Very happy now!
Battery performs as expected! I'm a little more comfortable buyi'ng name brand products instead of knock-offs. Thats just me though....

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I had off brand batteries before and they never seem to last as long as the Nikon ones.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I shoot with a Nikon D2x and use a D200 with an MB-D200 battery/grip as a backup camera. I have tried batteries from after market companies, but I have never found any that were reliable. I now have six Nikon EN-EL3 batteries. These batteries have never let me down. They function well under even the most extreme conditions and recharge quickly when exhausted. The only con I can think of is that they are pricey, but on balance they are worth every penny.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

The Nikon brand batteries last much longer than the "odd" or "off" brands.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Do you shoot a lot?

If so, buy an extra battery. The worse thing that can happen with a digital camera is it shutting down as "the shot" finally materializes after a long session of shooting comes to close.

Long gone are the days of mechanically-operated shutters, and in many cases, mechanically controllable apertures.

This receives an "average" rating because it does not do anything particularly special. It is simply an exact replacement for the camera's included battery, it does not do anything different. It charges fast, but if it charged even faster, or lasted longer than what it replaced, it would receive four or five stars.

It, however, is still a shooting necessity!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I have not had the battery very long however if it is as good as the one that came in my camera it will be great. The one that came with my camera is now two years old and I have taken over a thousand photos. I have yet to have a problem with the battery in any way. I only got a new one was because I wanted to have a back-up.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I ordered this battery as a spare to the one that came with my Nikon D300. I am very impressed with the longevity of this battery with that particular camera, as I can easily get well over a full day's worth of shooting out of a single charge.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I have tried after market batteries and they do not have life span of the Nikon battery. Plus it works in all 4 models of Nikon cameras. Which makes it nice to only carry on style of battery no matter where I go.

not much to say about a battery except that it charges up and powers my D80 for a lot of shooting.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

With the money spent on the camera, I just stick with the Nikon batteries to avoid any problems. I've had problems with non-brand name batteries in the past.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I like the Nikon batteries. I have tried a number of the off-brand batteries and they require more frequent charging and do not last nearly as long.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I have purchased (stupidly) two knock-off brand EN-EL3e batteries for my D80, two different brands. The first one charged fully the first time and never worked again. The second charged up quickly...and then promptly went dead after approx. 1/3 the usage it took to drain my original Nikon battery. It also would never again charge fully after that first time. With this original Nikon replacement battery, it seems to hold charge even longer and under more strain than the one that came with the camera. Excellent product!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I needed to replace my back up battery as I was heading to the wilds of Alaska - charged perfectly & held charge for just as long as the original.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I am amazed at the endurance of this battery. And the price made it even more spectacular. I have owned several digital cameras and was worried about moving to digital SLR and battery life. I have taken hundreds of photos and a large number with the flash and have only had to recharge this battery once. I'm burning through the second charge now and it's just as long lasting this time. I'm thinking I might need another one.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

The best thing about this product is its long lasting, you charge it once and last for more than 500 pictures.

Though it does not mention that it works with the D80 in the description it does. I am currently using it in my MB-D80 battery pack and it is great. My sister used my camera with the battery pack as her backup to shoot a wedding and after a full 6 hours the battery was still displaying full on the LCD.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

This battery is great with my Nikon D80 SLR camera. It has outstanding staying power for taking 100s of shots without recharge. I purchased this as a backup for the battery that came with the camera, now I will never run out of juice while taking lots of pictures at family gatherings or on vacation. The price was OK but could be lower if the battery were not propritary.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I purchased this as a second battery for my new Nikon D-300 since my two batteries for my D-70 do not work with the D-300, i.e. are not "forward" compatible. However, this battery is "backward" compatible. This battery works fantastic, lots of juice to it and it is always best to go with Nikon brand name regarding batteries.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I bought a couple more of these to go in my new MB-D80 Grip. I was really tempted to buy cheaper brands and/or used units, but I have heard of too many issues from that and I made that mistake a few years back with a laptop battery... Anyway, I am glad I bought the real deal because now I am confident my battery meter will be accurate and my charger will work properly. Go ahead and buy this battery. It may be more pricey but after all it is a NIKON!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Purchased another battery to give me a backup battery for my D80 in case I need one for photo shoot. But the battery have held it's own ... after 250 to 300+ shots, still have 50 % on a recent event I had to cover indoors using an SB600 flash. These batteries are great and they charge really fast.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Only have the one that came with my D80, but will be ordering another soon. Great Battery, recharges fast. After having read many folks say they only get 400 or so shots off this battery, I must be lucky. I shoot both RAW and JPEG (fine) formats all the time, and on my last vacation trip, I took over 1200 shots that trip, without a single recharge, and still had a bar left on the indicator. Roughly a third of the pictures using the on camera flash, and review each after the shot. Great battery, but I'm buying a second simply to use in the MB-D80 battery grip.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

These extra battery packs until recently have been in short supply. Lots of places will try to sell you equivalents (off-brands) - DONT DO IT! This latest offering from Nikon for their latest generation DSLR's is tops and has built in intelligence to communicate with the camera. On a D80 I would get about 600 shots per charge - on a D300 it is appraoching 800.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

BEWARE: Bought two of these and they will NOT work in my new D300. These say 1800mA on the back and the Nikon brand EN-EL3e that came with the camera, and works fine, has 1500mA. Very unhappy. However, these gray EN-EL3e batts DO WORK in my D70 body.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Hey, it's a battery. I do like the extra abilities the Nikon batteries supply with the D200.

Does just as advertised

I've never had a problem with a NIkon-produced battery-(I was lucky when the earlier format had a recall). Holds charge well, very reliable. I always have 3--one in the camera, two fully charged in my pocket. Have rarely had to change out in the middle of a project.

These newer batteries are more reliable and provide a quick-charging power source.

I purchased 2 spares for shooting a larger number of women at several events. Using the on board flash and 300 - 500 shots in a few hours. I've never had to jump to the second battery, let alone the 3rd.. Anyone want to buy my extra spare? :-)

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I had no problems, battery charged quickly and lasted all day shooting with power still at end of day. Using the on camera fill flash seemed to take more toll on battery than reviewing photos or even downloading from camera but that is a camera issue not a battery issue. I was suprised that I could shoot all day up 8 gigs a day and still have enough power to download to computer.

Used in various Nikon DSLRs. Title of product needs to be updated to include D80, D40, and D40x.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

With the increased sophistication of today's Li-Ion batteries, I have stayed with original equipment instead of taking a chance with third party batteries. At the end of the day, there's no reason to risk your expensive camera trying to save a few bucks on the battery, right? This battery works as advertised. I never have to think about it - load, shoot, replace with spare, recharge, repeat. That's as it should be.

This is an excellent battery. I have a couple of them since I travel to locations overseas where recharge is difficult. I charge them all before I leave and they last a long time.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Although I haven't shot 800 pictures in a weekend, I have used the camera over an extended period of time with good battery life. I was always afraid to push the limit until I got the second EN-EL3e backup. This thing seems to work great and charges quickly.

it does the job that I need it to when I'm counting on it. What more do you need?

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I was not aware that it could be used in the Nikon D100 also. Now I have four batteries for my D100 as well as my D200. The saleman said I needed to have the "E" model for the 200 but did not tell me that I could also use it with the D100. Which means that I also have two chargers.

My D200 needs a second battery. It is worthwhile
having a spare.

I have the Nikon D-80 and these batteries hold a charge longer than the off brands. They also re-charge quickly.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

You always need a spare, always! And I keep my spare in my backpack. Last week in Columbus, Ohio I left my D200 in my car and it was -1 F. Later that morning I grabbed my Camera and the battery still held a charge. The previous day the battery level was at one bar. That was impressive!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I was told batteries for digital cameras would lose their charge quickly. Be sure to buy extra. So, I did. However, I haven't found what I was told true. I have used my camera for several days on one battery charge. Of course, I haven't shot thousands of images like the big-time pro's do. However, on one occassion, I shot over 700 images in one day with one battery. I think that's pretty good, don't you?

I bought 2 EN-EL3e for the vertical grip for the D70s. I shot weddings and family events and never have to worry about how much charge is left in my batteies. [...]

Great value! With the D200, you need to have two or more batteries when you spend a lot of time in the field. The battery life increases the more you use it and charge it.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

This is a great battery. Charges quick and lasts long

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

This product is exact replacement for original product. After the replacement scare on my
D100 batteries I decided to buy only Nikon batteries.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I recently bought a new D200 and I went to my kids basketball game. After about 100 shots (fine, large), the battery was dead. It lasted about 1 hour (the battery died about 2 minutes before the game ended. I didn't use the camera flash since I had the SB800. Are there any tips to save battery life?

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Having read all of these reviews, when I purchased my D200 I made sure to order extra batteries. As a professional, I will shoot a few thousand pic in a weekend. I shoot in Med/fine format JPG. I view every pic as taken. I made it a point to keep track the first time I used my camera. I am able to get about 900 shots before battery dies. It does recharge quickly however.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Battery life is excellent, so long as you don't use a VR lens. I bought my D200 with the 18-200mm VR, which is phenomenal, and I leave the VR function on most of the time and notice significantly less battery life per charge. Knowing this though, makes it easy to conserve the charge on only battery I have. It sure would be nice if I could find a spare.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I have both D200 and D80 as well as 70s and D50 I'm think D200 and D80 are great they are easy of operate and give great shots. I need backup batteries for D200 and D80 as these are my favorite and I use them most. But can't get batteries anywhere, extremely dissapointed. I guess I should have bought Canon when I went digital at least I could get batteries, disappointed in Nikon.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

I haven't actually counted the number of shots from a single charge, but I have no complaints other than I can't get a spare for piece of mind. The only time it went dead on me was when I was on vacation attending a wedding. The pro photographers left after a couple of hours, so I shot the remaining FOUR HOURS PLUS on a battery I had already been using for OVER 2 DAYS! I cannot remember when I last charged it because I only planned on taking a few shots here and there. I had an external flash on a D70s at the reception & got over 400 shots (at the reception alone) on large/fine setting (I NEVER use RAW) with plenty LCD reviews. The battery finally died about 5 minutes before they kicked everyone out of the reception hall. To this day, the couple says thier favorite pics are ones I took because I was there, shooting the whole time. OK, so it might not get 1800, but if you shoot anywhere near that much, you are probably a pro who should be well-prepared. Just pop it in the charger the night before or after a big day and you will be fine! Hey Nikon, I STILL want a back-up though!

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

i think the battery is fine. but its definitely an issue when Nikon switches most of its cameras to this one model of battery and neglects kicking its production into high gear.
now many of us are stuck trying get spares for our real-world usage of the battery.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

The battery is giving me fine results. Of course, I planned ahead when I learned it was a new battery, so I ordered my D200 with 2 spares. Today I shot 250 JPGs (Large, Normal, Ch) studying many on the LCD and I have 67% battery life left. With my MB-D200 the meter didn't move in an entire day of shooting. Enjoy your D200 and stop worrying about the battery life.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Nikon has not made this battery widely available and the EL-EN3 will not work in the D200. None of the other major battery makers such as CTA seem to have production lines for a comparable substitute. This is a big problem for owners of the new D200 and I believe the D80.

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

This battery has given me the performance I require. I have read other reviews claiming it doens't take 1800 shots.. but it does... of course not with the LCD or internal flash on... but I use an SB-800 LCD off for most my shots... High Quality RAW&JPEG Fine Large and fill up my card numerous times on a single charge. I have a spare that I have yet to need on a shoot..

Comments about Nikon Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack for many Digital SLR Cameras, and MB-D200 Multi-power Battery Pack:

Nikon advertises this battery as being able to last for 1800 shots. However, this is extremely misleading. The only possible way to get anywhere near the advertised number of shots is to take low resolution photos, turning off the LCD altogether, and backing off on other settings.

For most photographers, plan on 250-400 shots max using your LCD and shooting in RAW.
