My FujiFilm F700 takes great photos, but runs low on battery before you even get to fill up the card. I bought a 650mAh generic equivalent from an Amazon seller and it works great. It is light enough to carry around just like a memory card and it's really easy to change batteries when I need. Product is a little pricey at $40, so buy from an Amazon seller. If you find one cheap this is a must-have for your camera!

The Fujifilm NP40 battery is a powerful little lithium-ion rechargeable battery. It's identical in size and shape to the the excellent Canon NB-4L battery (uncannily similar, really). A couple of one-star reviews on this page are actually referring to a different item, which is a generic Fuji battery with case. They are unfortunately reviewing a completely different product, which can give the wrong impression about this particular Fujifilm battery. (Always be sure to check the product listing carefully, Amazon carries both name-brand and generic versions of camera batteries and chargers. If the price seems "too low", that's probably why! Just READ CLOSELY before ordering). This product, the genuine Fujifilm-brand NP-40 battery, is a good, solid, long-lasting rechargeable battery.

The battery life on my Fuji Z3 was getting to were it wouldn't even stay on long enough to take a picture so I knew I needed a new battery but figured they were super expensive so instead my husband just bought me a whole new camera. Then my grandmother wanted to purchase my old camera from me and I thought since it was always dying I'd get on here to see about getting a new battery for the Z3 and just let her have it. So I shipped her the battery and she said it works perfectly and I love how it was an original Fuji battery and not some junky off brand version. It makes the old camera take pictures like it was brand new and is better quality than my newer camera. :)

Amazon picture shows an original Japanese-produced NP-40 with 3.7V and 710mAh (just like the one I got with my F810). What I got was a Fujifilm-branded Chinese-produced NP-40 with 3.6V and 750 mAh. YES, IT WORKS, but it's just obviously cheaper. Skepticism is a virtue.

Like another reviewer, I ordered this based on the picture and description in the ad that clearly states it is a Fujifilm NP-40 battery. What I received is a knock off item with no brand name on it at all. It obviously works but I have no idea for how long. I am ok with off-brand items as long as they are honest about it upfront. But in this case it is clearly a deceptive tactic. I re-checked my order confirmation and sure enough it clearly states "Fujifilm NP40 Rechargeable Battery". This is NOT a Fujifilm. I wonder if Fuji knows these guys are using their name like that...

I have a Z1 and the battery life become unbearable. Basically just a couple of pictures and it would say low battery. Don't even try using flash either. So I had to get a replacement.

Try not to get a 3rd party battery. I tried and it was DOA. I know the price would tempt you but just go with the official brand.

Sadly though, if you think about it. Camera prices aren't that expensive so you might as well just buy a new camera instead of replacing the battery.

Got exactly what I ordered although it took 10 days - too long for 2 tiny camera batteries by us mail should not take 10 day.

I read a few bad reviews on this company before I purchased the item...My Bad... What I purchased was a FUJI FILM NP-40 3.6v 750mAh battery.
There was even a picture that matched what I needed. What I recieved was totaly differant item it was replaced with a FUNP-40 3.7v third party battery not a Fujifilm battery )
Amazon should stop dealing with companies that don't deliver what you order and give you a substute...Its just a lesson learned SO...BUY FROM BLUEMALL AT YOUR OWN RISK...

My Fuji camera will "only" take Fuji brand batteries - it will not take anything else comparable so I rate this as excellent.

I ordered one Fuji NP40 Battery.
I wanted the original...no knock offs.
Two non-Fuji batteries and one camera case for who knows what camera showed up. The staff answered my email in 3 business days. They sent me a free call tag. A full credit was received shortly thereafter. I found the original NP40 battery at Best Buy for $39.99 and tax. More than I wanted to pay but it is the real thing. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
