For those with VERY deep pockets!

Advantages: Can't think of any - buy a third party battery at a tenth of the price!
Disadvantages: Disgustingly overpriced

...Original Equipment Manufacturer's (OEM) accessories are usually sold at a premium, but the price of this particular battery is verging on the excessive! Battery technology has improved almost beyond recognition, largely as a result of the mobile telephone industry demanding greater capacity cells in a smaller format - the knock on effect is that smaller volume products have been able to cash in on the research. Olympus have adopted the BLM-1 package as it's format of choice for it's latest range of mid to high priced cameras. With a nominal capacity of 1,500 mAh, using rechargeable lithium ion technology, this cell packs a considerable punch in a moderately small unit. Lithium Ion has distinct advantages over 'traditional' Nickel cadmium cells, being free of the dreaded 'memory effect' - where to maintain optimum capacity...

Review of Olympus BLM-1 Lithium Ion

Great Buy

Advantages: long lasting battery life and half the size of the NB-1LH
Disadvantages: none

...Description The battery is made by and for Canon cameras. The battery type is a rechargeable lithium ion and it runs for 150 minutes at full charge. It hols a capacity of 790mAH and the battery is both long lasting and reliable. The battery was produced originally to succeed the NB-1Lh in size so that they could create smaller digital cameras for them to be used with. With a fully charged NB-3L Battery you will never miss the important snap when you're just about to capture the perfect moment! When in packaging the product weighs 454 g and it has a size of 17.5 x 6.9 x 1.8 and it weighs 100g by itself. Compared to equilevent batteries like jessops NB-3L it has a much better battery life and is a much better value for money compared to it's competitors. I would advise with not using other forms of compatible batteries as these...

Review of Canon NB 3L Lithium Ion

Its all to do with mAh

Advantages: Long lasting charge, durable and easy to use
Disadvantages: None at all

...If you have a digital camera you might find this battery information helpful. I purchased a Canon Ixus 330 about a year and a half ago and as part of the package, you are supplied with one re-chargeable battery, a Canon NB-1LH. It is a Lithium Ion Battery, which are ideal for mobile devices, much lighter than earlier made batteries, more environmentally friendly for disposal and they do not forget they are charged...(yes I didnt realise batteries were forgetful either!!!) A lot of the digital Canon range (including my camera) doesnt have a battery indicator so it is highly recommended that you carry a spare battery with you. Therefore before I went on my jolly holidays I popped into Jessops and bought a Jessops branded NB-1LH. This I think cost me £15, about £10 cheaper than the Canon battery. I then made it my rule...

Review of Canon NB 1LH Lithium Ion

Power When You Need It.

Advantages: Long life, fast recharge, small size.
Disadvantages: None.

...from the small size of the battery (about the size of a box of matches, I'd say) and handy contacts cover. I can't vouch for usage in other equipment but in the EOS, this battery is exceptional and one less burden to allow you to keep taking those perfect shots, time and time again. For the techinicaly minded, here are some stats:- Type: Lithium Ion Voltage: 7.4 volts Capacity: 750 mAh...

Review of Canon NB 2L Lithium Ion None

A normal battery

Advantages: long lasting
Disadvantages: might have problems when recharging it

...This lithium ion battery offers a long lasting video recording time for your cam recorder . It has the looks , the shape and the price as all other batteries and it is easy to use , just put it in the place for battery like the sketch shows on the camcorder . It is better and more of a high quality then the one that comes with the camera . Also by recycling it you can save the surronding enviroment . I reccomend also buying a new charger for the battery , because in my case the one that came with the cam recorder has let me down after two weeks from when i bought the camera. it just didn't want to charge the battery. what else should is say... it is just a normal battery...

Review of Sony NP BG1 Lithium Ion

Neither interesting, nor exciting

Advantages: Great battery life
Disadvantages: Bit pricey for the real thing

...How pleased I am to have finally found a digital camera which gives a more than decent battery life. My latest camera, the Canon 300D is a Digital SLR, and uses the Canon BP511 Battery, which is simply outstanding when it comes to juice usage! The battery is also suitable for other equipment, more on that later. It's all too easy for the manufacturers these days to quote this and that figure when it comes to battery life, when in reality you rarely get half that, tempting you to buy more batteries, and possibly more chargers too. Thankfully Canon's claims on the life of the BP511 are pretty darm spot on. The BP511 is a Li-ion battery pack. The good thing about Li-ion batteries is that they don't suffer from the "memory effect" that NiCad and NiMH tend to. This means you can charge them whenever you want regardless of whether they...
