Not just a simple extended battery pack ...

Thought was the Hahnel for my EOS 650D as a second battery beside the normal Canon itself.
For this price I was expecting only a solid build and a performance that matches the Canon batteries. Not more, but also no less.

I was very pleasantly surprised.
For processing is to say that everything is all right. First The battery sits in the typical plastic container, which is expected to know every DSLR owner. Everything feels good, no edges or other disturbing and the battery sits exactly in the camera, as one is already accustomed. The sheath of Orange may like, should perhaps also some repel. What is certain is that the manufacturer of this, but for a battery rather funky color, wants to "extreme" requirements visually match, but its Let's be honest. Who throws his battery because a few times against the wall or freezes him unceremoniously a two or three times in order to test the durability?

Oh Well ...

Important for me then just one thing: The Power!
And gentlemen ... because you have a lot. I changed after each unloading with the original battery by Canon and the other way and tried in approximately constant frequency to use the flash and adjust all other things and can say with conviction: The Hahnel battery lasts a lot longer than the Canon. I would go out of here quite 20% longer usability and am really excited.

When used on photo tour this battery now as the "main" -Energiegeber feels always and the Canon is demoted to spare. Sorry kid, but since you can not keep up;)

Unrestricted recommendable.
