Digital camera reviews of Canon BP-819 Lithium Ion Battery Pack for HF10, HF100 HF S & HF M Camcorders (Retail Packaging)
Digital camera Review: Canon BP-819 for Canon HF-S100
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great battery. It is only a fraction bigger (1/8" to 3/16" estimate) than the original that came with the camcorder. Based on other reviews I was really concerned about the size and weight of this battery. My old camcorder had an extended life battery 2.5 x the size of the standard battery, so after going forth and back for two days I decided the worst that can happen is to return it and loose the shipping costs. I use 16GB cards and could not run the battery down with one of these cards (80 min). This is the battery that should have been included with the product, but I assume that is how they make their money. They know everybody will by the extended battery. I found the best price at Amazon and would highly recommend buying this item. Two of these would be great, but for now I'll use this one as my main battery and the one that came in the box as a backup.Digital camera Review: Canon Battery lasts longer
Summary: 5 Stars
BP 819 works great with HG-20. Get GC-800 battery charger to charge this battery, charging via the camera takes too long.Digital camera Review: Changed the shape of the camera
Summary: 1 Stars
The battery is great as far as the quality and length of recording time etc. HOWEVER, this battery changed the shape of the camcorder (it sticks out the back of the camcorder significantly), so much so that my normal comfortable grip was made impossible to do because I coudn't rest my thumb flat across the back of the camcorder anymore. The camcorder is very nice, but this is a real bummer as I will now need to stock up on the smaller version of the battery. My hand is a male's medium hand with relatively short fingers, at least that's what my golf glove says.Digital camera Review: Don't buy the HF10 or HF100 without this....
Summary: 4 Stars
You really need extra juice with these new cameras. Don't think. Just go buy this extended battery pack and go take lots of great footage with the nifty little camera...Digital camera Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
Needed a battery that would last longer than 1 hr for my Canon HF10 - Bought this one - I recorded for 2 hours and it was still going strong. Highly Recommend.
