5.0 out of 5 stars The natural Choice to make, August 20, 2008

By	Nils Valentin (Tokyo, Japan) - See all my reviews

This is the battery that should come with your video camera by default.

What do you do if you want to record events that last longer than 1.5 hours ? You upgrade the battery, right.

The BP-827 (4.5h) is not easy available yet everywhere so the BP-819 becomes the only choice.

It can last close to 3h and thats enough to capture most events.
(Fireworks, school event of your kid, concerts, theatre etc.).

With the external charger the battery is charged in roughly the same time (3h) with the cameras included charger its taking 4h.

4.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable, June 9, 2008

By	Sergio H. Guimaraes "Sergio Richiden" (Rio de Janeiro, RJ Brazil) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The battery that comes with Canon HF10 doesn't last enough in a day recording. So, an extra battery is indispensable. This one last about 2 hous. It's a little expensive, and unfortunately its bigger and comes out of the camera. If you have the HF100 model, this battery is only available in black, not matching the camera's color.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific buy!, July 3, 2008

By	B. Grant (GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This battery is the best investment you can make for your HF-100. Whereas the default battery lasts under an hour, this one lasts easily over two hours with very little extra weight. It is a little larger but I find the larger size actually helps me stabilize while using the camera by placing my thumb under the battery. I wouldn't own the HF-100 camera without this battery.
