 as good as the canon but a lot cheaper July 5, 2008
Battery fits Canon 1D just fine. 500 shots or so (more?) on first run (over 3 hrs). So far - as good as the original for sure.
Great value for the price May 18, 2008
The fit and compatibility were not issues with this battery. I have literally taken this battery on multiple shoots using a 70-200 f/2.8L IS and have not had to recharge it since the initially charge. I am still on the first charge after a few hundred shots using this energy-sucking lens on a Canon 1d Mark II!
If you are money conscious and don't mind using a non-Canon brand battery, this seems to be a good choice.
 Not woth the money. March 26, 2008
I admit, the OEM Canon battery is expensive and overpriced. If you are a professional photographer this is not worth the money - it may work 'okay' for amateur shooters.
Pro's:
The only pro about the product is the price.
Con's:
- Not a 'perfect fit' to the (MARK IIn) camera. it's 98% there - but I'm not risking it. Although the camera never shut off, it did have trouble turning on right after changing the battery - forcing me to re-insert.
It is not a 'snug' fit - which means it does not make a water resistant seal around the battery compartment. As a pro shooter I have to shoot in less than Ideal conditions (beach, rain, mist, etc) - not risking it.
- Short useage. Battery was low after only about 600 shots (non flash, driving a 70-210 f2.8 - review set at 2 sec). The OEM easily did twice that.
In short it would take two to three of these to get the same use as the OEM - and with the contact / water resistant issues that this item poses I think it's best to pay the premium for the (overpriced) OEM.
Good replacement battery for 1DsMKII January 17, 2008
I've used the Canon batteries and they are over-priced. I've used other second party replacement batteries and most of them do fine in normal conditions but seem to falter in cold weather. This is the first replacement battery I've used in my 1DsMKII that held up as well as a Canon OEM battery in cold weather. Everything on this battery works identical to the Canon version and I can recommend purchasing this model for your camera. No complaints and the price is very reasonable.
Excellent battery for Canon 1 series December 18, 2007
Not wanting to pay $100+ for a Canon replacement battery, I started looking at other brands. Numerous photo websites recommended this Lenmar battery so I took a chance and ordered 2. I am very impressed. It fits as well as the original and it seems like I get quite a few more shots per charge than I did w/ the Canon original. The build quality also seems quite good unlike some other 3rd party batteries which have a loose fit and/or the latch at the end won't stay in place. Overall I am extremely satisfied w/ this purchase and would recommend the Lenmar battery to everyone needing a good battery for their Canon 1D series.
