Questions & Answers

Shopper : Is this battery compatible with HF R42?BILL T : Sorry, I do not know. Maybe try a Google searchJOHN H : I use it with my HF R400, so if the R42 is the better version of the R400, I would say yes. But I would verify this on Canon's site before spending this much money. It is a nice battery, a must have for long shootsANDREW R : Yes, Canon indicates that this battery is compatible with the HF-R42
Albert P : Does the Canon BP727 able to communicate with the camcorder?PETER R : Yes it does. The camera reports how many minutes are still available.EDWARD H : The answer to your question is "Yes", just make sure that the battery pack say's Intelligent on the pack, as the one's that do not cannot communicate with the camcorder as far as letting you know the power level available. I am also very happy with how long the battery holds a charge. Good luck, I hope this was helpful. EdwardWILLIAM R : Yes.STEVE G : Yes. It shows how much charge is left for recording. BILL T : It worked for me.DANIEL N : Yes no problemTIMOTHY C : Yes, this particular one does. You do have to be careful however about buying from some discount battery places. If the battery is not an "Intelligent" one you will not know if it's charged or not. I made the mistake on an earlier Canon camcorder and got a discount battery, not knowing that the Intelligent battery has a circuit or something that communicates with the camera. The little money I saved was small consolation for the peace of mind I lost from never knowing when the battery was going to die. Please don't do that. Adorama sells the real deal at a good price. I'm very happy with all the Canon batteries and accessories I've purchased from them.
Shopper : I have a Vixia HF R300...What is the use time for this battery between charges?LUKE P : I tend to get between 2 hours and 3 hours, depending on how long I'm shooting for and how long its in standby. I shoot more documentary footage, which means the camera is always rolling, so my experiences might be different than other videographers. I believe the readout tends to say between 180-190 minutes when I first plug in the battery. I highly recommend the fast charging station, if you tend to shoot in the field for long periods of time. Works well.GAIL S : I'm getting about 180 minutes between charges.DANIEL N : I am sorry I can't answer that question honestly. I use it every now and then. But if I had to take a guess, probably 2-3 hours continuos. SorryCLINTON O : mine last about two and a half hoursWILLIAM R : About 4 hours 30 minutes per charge. This is a must have, for this camera!! Without it, the camcorder is useless, unless you have your own powerpack. With this battery, it's terrific.JOHN M : Depending on the use of zoom you can get about 6 hours of fixed recording. Using the zoom often will reduce to about 5-51/2 hours. Great product to upgrade to from standard battery. MATT S : I get around 2 hours on a full charge in HD.

Just what I expected

Needed a backup batter to the one I had before going on a mission trip. Came in the nick of time, and functioned perfectly! Even though my camera is an older model, glad you still stock the battery!

Must buy if your standard battery is the BP-718

In my camera, the 727 lasts about 2x the 718.
