Excellent purchase
2009-06-25Works as good and long as the battery that came with my camcorder. Can't beat the price and shipping was super fast.

Good so far!
2009-06-16Works as advertised after 4 weeks. Similar run-time as the original that came with my Sanyo Xacti video recorder. Time will tell if it can keep it up...

Same as oem as far as I can see. Overpackaged
2009-06-09I am using this in a Sanyo Digital Movie camera and it appears to work as well as the original. That's the highest praise for a replacement battery.Watch out for the packaging though. I had to cut the multiple layers of thick tough plastic with a knife and then pry the battery loose. I rate the packaging hazardous.

Works
2009-05-13Takes a charge, works in device - how long the power lasts remains to be seen, but at the price if it approximates 75% of the OEM battery I'll be satisfied.

Works!
2009-04-19Well, what can I say, it works! Don't know whether it's better, the same, or worse than the stock battery. I just alternated the batteries each day and then used the camera. One didn't seem better than the other. In fact, to be honest, unless you do a TON of diving and recording I'm not 100% sure you'll even need the extra battery. I shot a LOT of underwater video and never got the "low battery" message. But I guess it's not a bad idea to be prepared.

Finding the Right Digital Camera
By Dave Etchells
Finding the Right Digital Camera
The overall goal of the Imaging Resource website (www.imaging-resource.com) is to help people chose and use digital imaging technology as effectively as possible. As simple as they are to use, choosing the right digital camera involves a number of decisions. Key issues are computing platform, image quality, onboard image capacity, exposure versatility, feature set, and included software. In this article, we'll lead you step-by-step through some of the issues to consider in making a purchase decision, and at the same time, suggest some things to look for in the test images we've collected on our website.
We're interested in your feedback and experience! We invite you to elaborate on this article by leaving comments via the database link at the bottom of the page. You can also give feedback in our "Forum" discussion-group section.

Camera basics: shutter-speed, aperture and ISO
In this article, I’ll introduce you to the basic elements that you can use to control exposure in your shooting. If you have a digital SLR, there will be a way to set all of these controls on your camera, but since they differ between manufacturers and models, you’ll need to refer to your camera’s manual to find out exactly how to change them.
All cameras, whether an ancient film camera, or a more modern digital, work in pretty much the same way. Photographs are taken by letting light fall onto a light-sensitive medium, which records the image. Traditionally, this has been film, but more recently, it tends to be a digital sensor. The more light that falls onto the film or sensor, the lighter the image.
Put simply, a camera consists of a light-tight box that stores a light-sensitive device (either a film or a digital sensor), a lens that magnifies and focuses the image onto that light-sensitive device through a hole in the box (called the aperture) , and a shutter that opens ...
