Has anyone had any experiences, or issues, with Amazon replacement batteries, which can be picked up for a fraction of the prices charged by manufacturers like Sony for their replacement batteries. Like maybe £11 against £70 from Sony.
It's not really clear if the Amazon batteries are genuine replacements, or copies (which seem most likely) or even refurbished, though the latter seems unlikely.
My worry is that are they going to be reliable and stable, like in the voltage output for example. I may be worrying over nothing but it seems to me that it would only take too higher a current to seriously damage the cams delicate chips!
Has anyone had any problems of this nature with Amazon's batteries. Or any good comments regarding stable reliable use?
I did purchase one a while back for a Panasonic TZ2, which has since developed problems, but there is no way of knowing if this is linked to that new battery or not, but does present a slight worry when it comes to my Sony A58!
