NP-F Series doesn't mean what I thought it meant

By Andreas
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2024-03-03

My a6400 has NP-FW50 batteries. Like a n00b I thought that meant this would fit those batteries, given that the first three letters of the model name were NP-F, but I was completely wrong. Happy mistake, though, because getting my hands on batteries that WERE compatible ensured that I don't have to swap batteries in the middle of my kids' basketball games now. So, in the end, my mistake made me love it.
