Replacement DSLR batteries.

I'm up for a new battery for my Canon 30D, any recommendations for a quality aftermarket supplier ?

I've got some Inca batteries that have lasted pretty well... They seem as good as OEM

[Disco4Dave]

How much are the genuine batteries?

If they are still available i would go genuine to be honest.

I've used BetterBatt to source spare batteries for my 300D, 60D and Panasonic video.

All of the batteries have been good although they do not last quite as long as the factory, which are in constant rotation so as best as I can judge are going through similar use and recharging cycles.

At 1/3 of the cost I think they are good value. You can also get 12V 240V chargers and dual battery adaptors for the Canon.

How much are the genuine batteries?

About $130, duracell for $45 and Betterbatt $24.92.

About $130, duracell for $45 and Betterbatt $24.92.Out of those 3 I'd avoid the BetterBatt ones, haven't had a good run with their products or after sales warranty service

I have had some good experience through keeping a watch on ebay. Have found used original factory batteries being sold for a very good price. Look for someone selling camera equipment as they have tested the battery and can confirm it is still in good condition.
