Sony NP-BG1 Type G Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery Pack for Sony W Series, Digital Cameras

I was very happy with this product. I took a look at the clone versions of this battery and recalled that the last time I purchased a clone (also for a sony camera) it was a disaster. The battery would not keep a charge and well, let's just say that it makes a pretty nice paperweight now.I admit that that's not really fair to the clones of this particular battery since I did not try them but I suppose it's just a word to the wise. I have a Sony Cybershot DSC-HP camera and the Sony NP-BG1 Type G Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery Pack works perfectly. The charge is fairly quick (average 4 hours) and the battery lasts pretty much all day. I carry my camera with me every day just in case I see an interesting subject to shoot, and with 2 spare batteries I am never in a position of not being able to use my camera. When I go out with the intent of shooting pictures, one battery will last pretty much all day. For the day to day use of casual picture taking, I have gone as long as 3 days before I need to swap batteries. I am very pleased with the decision to go with the Sony battery pack for a Sony camera. It works perfectly.

I have purchased this battery (Sony NP-BG1 Type G Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery) for my Sony camera (Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290). The seller (VORTEX CABLE) send the item as promised within 4 days. I had paid $28.96 for the battery and the expedited shipping method.This battery worked great for my family vacation to LA, Las Vegas and Grand Canyon. I used it as spare battery and took numerous photos. I did saw one person exclaiming that his camera battery ran out while in Grand Canyon. By paying a small sum compared to the trip cost, I saved myself from that situation.

The battery came on time . Everything was what was said no problems

As with most Sony products, this battery is very reliable, long-lasting and obviously of high quality.The only real "stick-point" is that it is proprietary that is unique to only Sony products and then only a very few (perhaps only ONE!) models. That drives the cost of the battery way up relative to other batteries.I recognize that the Lithium Ion technology is more expensive to begin with, but it would seem quite obvious to me that Sony could come up with a more universal battery for use with more of their product lines thereby reducing costs tremendously.There are aftermarket versions of this battery (e.g., Everyready), sometimes for much less money. But I have not tried them yet only because the one merchant I found on Amazon had such a good, low price relative to all others I found.Again, excellent product!

es tal cual lo que pedi

Bought this for my Sony Camera. After just one year, the threebatteries I bought can no longer hold a charge, and as this isthe only battery my camera takes, I can no longer use my camera.I will not ever use this battery again.

Bought this to replace the battery I lost. MOST IMPORTANTLY - it charges and functions in my Sony camera in the EXACT manner as the original battery. For those who have had other experiences - maybe double check to make sure you are buying the exact battery type your camera needs. There are other types that may fit, but wont function... possibly making one think its a problem with the individual battery... If one was to buy what they think looks like "the right one" because they don't have the original. (This may be the case with the "F" type??)

I'm using this battery on a Sony Cybershot camera and have been extremely pleased. I'm carrying the camera on my belt each day and I'm finding this battery stays charged for weeks. Granted, I don't use the camera all the time but will, periodically, pull the camera out to snap a shot or two or take a short video of something. This battery just keeps going and going. It also recharges in about 4 to 6 hours (depending on how low it is).I would recommend this to anyone. I bought an extra one simply so I could have an extra battery. For times that I know I'll probably use the camera a lot, I take the extra battery in my pocket (in it's plastic case). Then if I need it during the day, there it is.
