Digital camera reviews of Nikon EN-EL4a Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery for MB-D10 Battery Pack and Nikon D2 and D3 Digital SLR Cameras (Retail Packaging)
Digital camera Review: Not compatable with Nikon MB-D10 for D300
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this battery for use in the Nikon MB-D10 grip for the D300. Although this battery may work for the D2 series it will not work with the MB-D10 and D300. The camera shows no battery in the MB-D10 when using this battery, but works fine with a Nikon EN-EL4A. So, in my case this battery is useless.Digital camera Review: Outstanding
Summary: 5 Stars
Simple and works as advertised.
I put a freshly charged one in my D3 and have taken at least 2000 pics with it and it's still showing full charge.
Outstanding.
Why save a few $$ buying an off brand that may or may not work (be VERY careful with Lithium batteries!!)
Just spend the extra few $$ and get the real thing.
Digital camera Review: Professional quality - professional performance!
Summary: 5 Stars
This battery allows me to shoot all day without worrying about how much juice I have left. This kind of peace of mind is priceless. A professional battery for professional photographers that gets the job done.Digital camera Review: Really great battery..but..one problem..
Summary: 4 Stars
Just as Nikon states, these things last forever. I can go for a full weekend without worry. However I carry a second battery as a backup.
But...yes..there is a but. One of my Nikon EN-EL4a batteries just simply died on me. (yes it is a Nikon product). A few months ago, I was in the field shooting and the day had just begun. The battery was charged the night before and showed a full charge on the camera. Within 2 pictures and no warning it died. (sadly this was before I brought along a backup battery).
I've talked to Nikon USA service and they have had instances of this happening to others. My rule of thumb is to take 2 batteries with me and the charger for anything overnight.
I have not had the problem since then and write this off as perhaps a bad battery.
Digital camera Review: The heart of the Nikon D3
Summary: 5 Stars
The EN-EL4a is the finest battery Nikon has produced to date. It is powerful, reliable, and it holds a charge noticeably longer than any of its predecessors. I view it as the heart of my Nikon D3 system. During critical shoots, I accurately monitor the condition of the EN-EL4a via the setup menu on the D3. It reveals the number of exposures made with it, the percent of charge remaining, whether it needs calibration, and its estimated lifespan. Using this procedure, the EN-EL4a has never let me down. A second EN-EL4a for backup is recommended, as a full charge takes a little over an hour.
