.. But at least as good. Especially me once the price attracted. A genuine spare battery in business had me momentarily a bit too expensive. Since I photograph a lot I need very often a newly charged battery because the charging time of my batteries in the camera takes a long time. I must confess, this battery needs while to load just as long, and this is -just as in the original only in the camera. That's what bothers me on the whole. But you have to be flexible: o) and the batteries then load preferably overnight. All in all I am very satisfied. Even with the dealer, who sent me the goods immediately. High praise and thank you.
