CGR-S006 [Posted on 2007-12-29]
I bought this battery to serve as a backup to my camera's OEM battery. It works very well and actually has a lot more storage capacity. I use it with my new Panasonic LUMIX DMC-fF18K camera. It gives about 500 photo's between charges.. Thats a LOT of shooting for any one.. It fits right in the OEM charger and works great... I give it **** stars.

Last just as long as the original battery. I can shoot all day (w flash) and have plenty left over.

A good battery for a small price. [Posted on 2008-06-15]
Although this battery costs 10% of the OEM battery, I cannot tell the difference in performance. It seems to last just as long between chargings as the battery that came with the camera.

I have only had it for several months now, so I cannot say whether it will last as long before needing to be replaced as does the Panasonic-branded unit. But, so far it has worked great for me. And, having that second charged battery when your first one dies and you cannot get to an outlet is almost a necessity.

A good product at a great price.

Great Battery Substitute at Great Prices [Posted on 2008-06-19]
I've had several of these batteries and none of them have failed. Any downside to purchasing them? No. Upsides? They're much less expensive than the Panasonic batteries, hold charges as well or better, and keeps you going, especially when you start graduating to the 4GB and 8GB SDHC cards! Video mode on the Lumix line starts eating into the camera's power, since the cameras actually use "motion jpeg," which is the same as shooting low-res still images and sound at 30 frames per second. They fit well into both camera and charger, and you don't miss buying Panasonic labels at a premium price. One thing: look for batteries with a higher "mAh value." The higher the number of milliamps, the deeper the power and longer the charge lasts.

I have had the FZ50, which took this type battery, and recently upgraded to the FZ-18 Lumix cameras. The battery fits and works in both of them, and I have about 5 of these plus the stock Panasonic as well.

Good deal [Posted on 2008-06-25]
Got this extra battery for my lumix dmc-fz18 as combo. The price was good and now I have an extra battery that comes with my camera and my 4GB memory card, and I think everybody interested in taking pictures outdoors should get an extra battery... This was a fair deal, satisfied!!
