A Must

"Certainly a helpful accessory to have. The battery that comes with the HF10 lasts little over an hour, so having the extra battery (BP-819) adds approx 2:30 hrs of recording time to your day. The only thing that I found tricky was charging the battery in the camera. The BP-819 sticks out far enough from the end of the camera to prevent the cover that protects the AC input from bending to the side to allowing acc..." Read Full Review »

too much money for this batterie

"The capacity of this accumulator is twice higher than the standard capacity (1780 mAh against 890 mAh), however I couldn't achieve a similar shooting duration increase. No doubts, it depends on many factors, but Canon asks too much money for their batteries. The standard one is not suitable for anything; one charge is enough only for about 20 minutes video shooting during 2 days. With 819 it was possible to make..." Read Full Review »

"Very long life, I shot a birthday party over a 4 hour period on this battery, ending up with about 1 1/2 hour of HD video without changing this battery, and still had enough power for another hour remaining. It protrudes out on a canon HF-S10 about 1/4 inch further than the stock battery, but does …"  Read Full Review »

"One of the things that disappointed me on the new Canon Vixia HF-200 is the battery life - far less than I expected. An additional battery is almost a mandatory add-on and, after some frustrated experiences with third-party batteries, now I stick with original ones.

"This is pretty much essential for enjoying the HF-10 camera for any length of time. The camera comes with a 1/2 sized version of this. Unfortunately this large battery pack ruins the ergonomics of the camera by protruding out the back. My thumb rests comfortably on the smaller battery. "

"To be honest, I've yet to actaully have the stock battery go dead on me, but until I started using this extended capacity battery, I was alway nervous that it would give out during that 'magical' moment. The true test will be going for a weekend backpacking trip and only using just the one battery. …"  Read Full Review »
