5.0 out of 5 stars Sony Battery as advertised
I purchased this battery as a spare. It is the same size as the one that came with the HDD recorder. The batteries drain fairly fast if you do a ton of on and off shots like I have done for our newborn. No complaints. Also purchased small plug-in charger for the battery only. This is a must because it means you do not need to carry the docking station unless you plan...

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT a NPFM50 Replacement
When searching for a replacement battery, Amazon leads you to believe that the NP FH 50 is a replacement for the NP FM 50. This battery will NOT replace your NPFM50; it does NOT fit in my Sony DSC-S70 despite claiming to be comparable.
Now to deal with an annoying return, plus 4 days lost.
No knock against the battery or the retailer, just don't do what I...

5.0 out of 5 stars Spare Battery...., August 27, 2007

Does what it says on the tin really, powers my HDD camcorder for longer than the supplied NPFH40 battery - but then it would as it's of higher capacity. Add to that it's a genuine replacement, not like some poor copies around. Shop around carefully for the best deal, makes all the difference!

exactly the same size batt as the NPFH30 that sony packs with the DCR-DVD models. that was my priority. haven't used it yet so as long as it lasts any longer than the default, i'm happy. found it for 32.99 last week, while sony's website and others sells the same NPFH50 for 60.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sony's InfoLithium Battery for DSC-HX1, June 3, 2009

This "new" battery of Sony's is a bit smaller than for the Sony DSLR series. However, it still maintains enough power to see me through most of day's worth of shooting. That's using the LCD screen, zoom, some video shooting, and reviewing/deleting. I always carry a spare, fully charged battery for the inevitable "emergency". It's well worth the cost for reliability, size, and quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Battery for the HC96, September 14, 2007
This review is from: Sony NPFH50 H Series Actiforce Hybrid InfoLithium Battery for most Sony Camcorders and A230, A330 and A380 Alpha DSLR (Electronics)
I bought an off-brand battery and it wouldn't work in my camera. So, I bought this battery and it works great. It lasts at least 30% longer and is the same physical size as the battery that came with my HC96. I can almost go through a 60 minute dv tape with this battery. Though, I do have to qualify that statement by saying that I hardly ever use the LCD.

Comparison shopping - this was the best deal for this battery (especially with free shipping!). We bought the camera somewhere else but the battery and extra dvd's here - saved a lot of money!

5.0 out of 5 stars True to its title, October 6, 2009

This one is a spare battery for my DSC-HX1. Nothing much to be said about this but this is a orginal Sony product and the battery life is far better than my any other previous camera batteries.
Most of the times while buying accessories you wonder if it would be as good as the ones you originally got with your purchase. You wont be disappointed with this.
A must buy as a spare if you like to take many pictures without having to worry if your battery would drain down.

This better works fine in my sony camcorder.
The only problem is it does not hold a charge if you store it for over a week or so.
So it's not ready for the special moment when you need it. it does still take a full charge and works great.
You just need to recharge it periodically if you want it ready to go when you need it.
