Have this battery bought because it is so good reviews were here among other things for use in a Nikon D5300. Unfortunately, that did not work out in my. The battery is charged while the original charger and also recognized by my camera, but it should be worked so imprecisely that it was little more to figure out! He stuck firmly in the total battery compartment. Only by prolonged shaking - which is not exactly the best thing for a camera - and to my mind infinitely long time and a lot of "stomach ache" :-), I got this thing out again. In the second battery, which I had ordered the same thing! Only the original battery is light, the spring pushes it out - no problem. So liegts to the battery and not to my camera. I must admit, I had all my Nikon has always "replica batteries" of different companies and there were never problems with it. But in this case, sadly, I can therefore only advise to use it in a D5300. Have bought at a high price a second original battery and there were no problems with it ....
