This is the new battery for the D5000 but it is also usable on the D40, which I have. All you have to do is upgrade your camera firmware and the battery works to its fullest potential, which adds about 10% capacity versus the old D40 battery, the EN-EL9. I made the mistake of buying a generic brand as a backup battery for my D40 before - don't do it. You may get lucky and get one that works well, but they're cheap, and often made poorly; if they fail, they can pose a safety hazard. If you have a nice DSLR just get the Nikon battery, and know that the very best hardware is being used, and not some piece of junk. Excellent battery, just as one would expect from Nikon.

I had tested the battery before the function but at the very moment my camera froze with a message that the battery is not a recognized version (different wording but same meaning)and I ended losing a lot of good pictures. I bought two for my battery pack and now realize its a problem with the battery..

Comments about Nikon EN-EL9a Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery:
I never had a spare battery until now and had to wait for the battery to recharge. The battery saves me from waiting on the battery to recharge. The battery only has one drawback. In most cases the battery is great but in some, if it would only last another few minutes I would be done.

Its exactly the one that I wanted. I initially bought it from [@] but when it came, it was obvious that it is a counterfeit product. Then I decided to buy it from B&H and it is the real genuine battery made by Nikon. Beware buying Nikon batteries from [@]!! Pay a few more dollars and buy it from B&H instead!!
