I've been using these batteries ever since I bought the a77 when it first came out. And then the a77ii, to the a99, and on to the a99ii. Never had a problem with them. Matter of fact I'm still using the ones from the first purchase in rotation with the others. Just bought two more with this purchase, (while they're still available), and now have a total of 10 in rotation.

Having used non Sony batteries, I was disappointed because they did not hold a charge for very long. I used these generic batteries as they were less expensive then Sony. Problem for me was, just when a photo op comes up that I had been waiting on the battery is dead. By time I switched the shot was lost. I had always been advised to not go with off brand batteries, so now I am in total agreement.

I lost one, and needed another one. It has been 8 years since I got the camera, and I haven't seen them for sale since. It is a Factory Sony InfoLithium, and it works perfectly. So glad I was able to find it.

It seems that for a Sony camera, off brand batteries just don't cut it. Dying in the middle of a shoot even if the charger said 100%. These are also not easy to find at a fair price. I was thrilled to not only find it with a reasonable price, but very quick shipping. Works flawlessly.

The generic replacements just don?t cut it. When you need the batteries to actually work well and keep working you have to spend the money and get the original.

I own 10 year old Sony batteries that are still holding more charge than 2 year old aftermarket cells. Even near the end of their service life, these show more accurate charge status than a new aftermarket battery.

Performed as expected, shot over 4000 images before having to change the battery.

I don't get many paid photo shoot gigs but I have one coming up and sure don't want to be embarrassed if my battery went dead. So a small price to pay for a good quality stand-by camera battery. I can certainly recommend this as a good value.

Needed a battery for my Sony VG-B30AM (Vertical Grip) Didn't want to mess around with less expensive substitutes. Might purchase another in 2018, delivery was very speedy!

Really nothing to say if you have a Sony camera that uses these batteries. You have to have it.. There are knock offs available but I've heard nothing but bad things about the knock offs. Only complaint with these batteries is the power drain when in use. But that's largely due to the camera.

A good replacement battery for my Sony A300 and A850 cameras. Its a good idea to have several batteries on hand for easy switching into and out of your camera. I have 6 of these batteries and keep them charged at all times.

Branded batteries always seem to work better in my Sony a77. Needed another since I got the vertical grip for the camera which holds 2 batteries.

Great price great performance. Works just as good as the factory one that came with my camera. I use it as a back up to my other battery when I shoot a lot of photos at one time and don't have time to recharge. A must have!

I am 60 years old and if there is one thing I have learned is do not attempt to save $ one a rechargable battery as you wont save a dime. These batteries get hot and without the proper amount of casing or insulation they can weaken the casing causing unreparable damage to the camera. The second matter how fast will this battery charge again heating is the issue. If you add a battery grip will you have equal power in both batteries or will one being lasting for hours after the other. The manufactures have said repeatedly over and over use the Sony battery or void the warrenty. They are serious, maybe you will get lucky or maybe you will be purchasing a new camera.I read the warning about just leaving the batteries in the car. A car can easily heat up in the sun to 120 and even higher.If you have purchased a warrenty you might as well as tossed your money in the trash, because Sony will see the damage done buy a battery but knowing that there camera is covered in the fine print dont let the battery in a hot car, dont buy a generic battery because they even can explode. We have seen what kind of products that can be shipped to this country and people are injured. Yes well Sony is in Japan but they are going to make sure that they have the right battery that is known it will not damage the camera if stored properly. Just think about it.!

This is an excellent battery which recharges very quickly, but does not give as many shots per charge as some others. I usually go on photo shoot expeditions at least once a week and typically shoot two to three hundred pics so have not run out.

Not much one can say about a camera battery. I purchased this one as a 2nd backup. So I now have 3 that I swap in and out as I need to during shoots.

Awesome Battery!!!
By KITK
I purchased an Alpha 65 about a month ago. Amazing camera! Only drawback was this battery. The stats say it will only take 560 images on the LCD screen on a charge. This is bad for me, seeing as how I bought this camera to move into shooting weddings. Where you will be literally taking thousands of pictures. So I was kinda bummed thinking about how many extra batteries I would be buying. Well I shot a model shoot today for over an hour. Took 593 images and still had 93% battery left! Absolute...

Must have for Alpha owners!!!

I have 4 of these original Sony batteries. I also use third party batteries too and they don't last as long as the Sony's. I can get between 400-500 shots with my A57 and A77. Save yourself the headache and spend the extra money on the Sony batteries.
Where professional photography meets power efficiency, the NP-FM500H 7.2V 1600mAh Rechargeable InfoLithium-Ion Battery stands out. Designed to fuel your passion for capturing stunning images, this high-capacity battery is an essential accessory for your Sony camera.
Engineered to be compatible with a range of Sony models, including the a68, Alpha 77 Mark II, and a99 II, this InfoLithium-Ion battery ensures you never miss a moment. Despite its compact size, it packs a powerful punch, offering a capacity of 1600mAh at 7.2V.
Contrary to the manufacturer's claim of 560 images on a single charge, user reviews suggest that this battery can power through a significantly higher number of shots, making it an ideal choice for events like weddings where you'll be taking thousands of pictures.
However, please note that compatibility varies across different camera models. For instance, it does not fit the a55 series of Sony cameras. Always refer to your camera's user manual or consult with a professional before purchasing.
In comparison to third-party batteries, the NP-FM500H 7.2V 1600mAh Rechargeable InfoLithium-Ion Battery offers superior longevity, allowing you to capture between 400-500 shots with models like the A57 and A77.
Invest in the NP-FM500H 7.2V 1600mAh Rechargeable InfoLithium-Ion Battery and experience the difference in your photography sessions. This product is a testament to Sony's commitment to quality and performance, ensuring your camera is always ready to capture the perfect shot.
