User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars It’s a Nikon, what do you expect!
As with all Nikon products I have purchased it’s top notch quality. The price here was about $20 less than the local camera store which didn’t even have it in stock. Fast shipping and great service overall.

5 Stars Holds 95% charge for 3 months
While on location my first Nikon en-el3e battery ran out on my D-80 from using the onboard flash and overzealous shooting. Imagine my suprise when I installed the Amazon purchased backup en-el3e Nikon battery that I had charged THREE months before and it showed 95% charge! I thought I was through with using the D-80 and was going to have to use my backup Cool Pix S60! Bravo Nikon!

5 Stars Can’t go wrong with an original
Stick to the manufacture original. Ordered one as a backup battery. I swap between 2 batts during charges but I will tell you they seem to last forever. I have never needed to change a battery during a shoot when fully charged. I use a D700, no pop up flash, no VR lens and lcd viewing is average. I have shot off 500+ frames at a wedding and the battery meter only went down one notch!

5 Stars Excellent endurance for a proprietary battery
After recently purchasing a Nikon D90, I had to learn about all the features and capabilities of the camera before taking it on vacation. That meant having the camera on a lot as I went through all the menus, settings, practice shots, etc. I purchased a spare battery to take with me and only had to use the spare once during a ten day trip. These batteries last for a long time. I hope they maintain that capacity over an extended period of time and re-charging.

5 Stars The real thing
Use the real thing! Why buy an expensive, wonderful camera, and then skimp on the one thing that runs it? Use real Nikon batteries, don’t risk the camera, don’t try to save a few bucks here.
