I have my Canon PowerShot SX 30 IS constantly pushing and have ordered this original battery as 2nd battery. I just wanted to have the certainty that I can use my camera, without having to be worried about the power supply. Battery I can say that it lasts a long time and is recharged very quickly. Batteries from other manufacturers I bought one and it'll definitely never do again (battery ran out). Thanks to Amazon for the super fast delivery!
