This is a 1500mAh battery. There are also 1000mAh ones available which is just 2/3 the capacity. Make sure you check what you're getting. If it's cheap enough, a couple of lower capacity batteries can be a good deal.

This is of a few that actually are equal to the original battery. Check specs. on any battery you consider and compare to the original that came with the E-410.
Amazon is, as always, fantastic. Prompt delivery of product as advertized.

Original batteries tend to be more reliable in the long term than the third party batteries so I like to stick with the originals even with the inflated price.

There isn't much to say, it is a battery and it works the exact same as the battery your camera came with. You are probably a photo enthusiast so you need a spare battery and this one makes the most sense.

4 stars because it is still expensive and a little slow to charge.

It's always a good idea to have a spare battery for those electronic items that have interchangeable, rechargeable batteries. Good spare for my camera and quickly received.

I have only had to swap out my original for my backup Olympus battery just once in six weeks of ownership, but was suggested to me that I get an additional battery. Charge time for a fully depleted battery is 2 1/2 hours. I shot a lot of pictures on a full charge. Always good to have a back-up. Doesn't come with charger. I shoot band and music gigs for buddies and people I meet. I would recommend going "OEM" (Original Equipment Manufacturer) for batteries and most accessories, including flashes and lenses, with a few exceptions.

This is a replacement battery for Olympus Pen 4/3rd cameras. You need this so you can keep using the camera when your camera battery needs to be recharged. It is the exact replacement battery for your camera battery. It works great.

Purchased this as an extra battery for my Ep-3. Works great, same as the one that came with the camera. I almost went with a 3rd party battery but with so many mixed reviews why risk having a battery not work when you are out and really need it?

I needed a extra battery for my EPL-1 camera and Amazon provided the original replacement battery at a very reasonable price. I bought this original Olympus battery because my camera is still under warranty and I wanted original equipment.

The battery worked well in the battery charger that came with the camera and charged in 3 - 4 hours, as expected. The battery fits perfectly in the camera and although I haven't had the opportunity to use it in the camera for any long period of time,I'm sure it will perform well. It was a Christmas gift.

It cost a little more then the other batters but I wonted a long life batter life. I think you get wot you pay for with batter's I wonted the Olympus one The camras came with
