With two of these in my T2i's battery grip, I am confident that I'll be shooting for a long time. With only one (in the body), I was amazed at the life, even when the camera had sat for a few weeks. As an owner of several Canon products, I have to say that the power consumption characteristics are very good, and I believe that using Canon brand batteries is probably the best way to maximize my cameras' capabilities.

Worth a bit extra
Much pricer than 3rd party versions, but it is reliable, won't void your warranty, and you shouldn't need more than one or two extra as they last over an hour with a full charge...Read complete review

Comments about Canon LP-E8 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.2V, 1120mAh):
This is my first "back up" battery purchase. In preparation for a wildlife photo workshop, I didn't want to risk poor performance from a generic battery for my camera. I am very pleased with my choice.

Comments about Canon LP-E8 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.2V, 1120mAh):
I needed a spare battery fast for a trip of a life time. I would be running around all day everyday with my camera. I went back and forth in my head over and over again about getting 3rd party batteries or a Canon one. In the end, when it came down to having to use the one I bought, I gotta admit, having a Canon original at the least gives peace of mind. Not one little worry about how it will perform or react to some abuse.

Comments about Canon LP-E8 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.2V, 1120mAh):
Use it primarily as a back battery. I charge it fully before heading out and have yet to have any problems with it keeping/holding a charge. Still working like a charm after many uses. I don't like using mixing non Canon products with my camera so this purchase was a no-brainer for me.

I used the product for my T2i.It works the same as the original battery that came with the camera.It's nearly half the price of [@] and [@].I can say i'm totally satisfied with this shopping experiment. I could buy cheap imitations but i wouldn't feel safe when i attach them to my camera.

Comments about Canon LP-E8 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.2V, 1120mAh):
I drive my kids and wife crazy with the amount of study I do before making a purchase. I had been using a 35mm w/ a battery grip, then I received a Canon T3i from my daughter so considering an extra battery and battery grip was a no brainer. I read EVERYTHING I could find, as there are many knock-offs and 3rd party (Chinese) products out there. Considering best price, reliability, warranty, and service, buying the real Canon LP-E8 battery, specifically from B&H won the prize, hands down, and did not disappoint. Product & seller both totally recommended.

The real deal! Not a substandard knock-off. You can't go wrong when you get OEM parts and equipment. We bought this as a second pack for our T3i and couldn't be happier. You can't tell it from the one that came with the camera.
