Longer Life...Uncompromised Quality!

"The Sony Infolithium L Series batteries have always been a staple in my video accessories collection.

"I bought two of these 6600mAh batteries for one of our Sony HVR Z7U HD cameras as it was going to be used on a documentary shoot and recharging during the day was not an option.

I needed it for concert performances & weddings that I video, for my part-time business so it REALLY comes in handy.
