Pretty standard piece of equipment, with typical Canon quality. No issues with cabling. I prefer the Canon unit over after market brands sold on e-bay because Canon's cables do not stiffen up and get brittle at low temperatures. I shoot outdoors in the field (astrophotography) at temperatures down to 15F (I use this adapter connected to a 12V-110V converter as camera batteries die quickly when cold). Many cheap cables get extremely brittle at temps below 30F and may break if flexed. This adapter keeps working fine with no issues.

The adapter ultimately worked fine on my Canon 60D. But when I first received it, I was simply testing it and loaded it in the camera, and nothing. No power. I looked online and saw recommendations to swap the polarity of the plug into the transformer. Nothing. In looking at the "battery" portion of the adapter, I noticed the silver contacts weren't the same as the actual battery. I thought this was the problem I was having. But alas, it wasn't. I eventually stumbled on the problem... I simply had never shut the battery door on the camera itself. The instructions do say to close the battery compartment, but since the battery, and the adapter, both "click" into place in the battery compartment of the camera, I thought that was enough to make contact with everything inside. There are no connectors on the compartment door itself, so I'm not sure why I need to close it, but I finally did on a whim, and voila, power! So the contact placement of the adapter, though different from the actual batteries, is still OK, weird, but works fine. Just make sure to CLOSE THE BATTERY DOOR! Really getting use out of the AC Adapter for those times when your battery isn't charged and you need to take some shots inside, or for doing studio shots without having to worry about battery life.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

I normally buy the cheap alternatives but for Video this is the only option to avoid audio issues caused by the cheaper non-shielded cords. If you are not shooting video at all or are not capturing audio then you might consider the cheaper alternatives.
1. Great product good quality.
2. Way overpriced.
3. Should be included standard with canon camera packages.
I use it with the 60D.
4 stars because I feel price gouged by Canon.

Excellent
What can I say? It's an AC adapter and it works exactly as advertised. I used it to do four days of shooting and didn't have to worry about batteries dying. Read more

It works
It woks perfectly, I use it for emergency with my Canon 7D. No problem to plug it. The cable is a little short buy I always carry my extension in the bag.

Crazy Expensive, but it's the real thing
I hated spending this much money, but all of the other options appeared to be mostly plastic and not guaranteed to fit the camera (Canon 60D) so I opted for the expensive but sure... Read more

works great
I have both a Canon 5D Mark II and a Canon 7D. This works on both. I use it mostly for times when I am cleaning the cameras or installing updates. Well worth the purchase.

Nice adapter but...
I really surprised no one has mentioned that the connecting wire coming from the dummy battery needs to be thinner. Read more

It just works
Its a simple piece of kit that is priced pretty expensively but if you are plugging in a pretty expensive camera you have to ensure it is safe right? Read more

Quality is Poor
There are two side to the adapter box, the one with the power cord and the one that goes to the camera. It is female. The wire to the camera is male. Read more
