EN-EL8 [Posted on 2007-05-25] Not a very long life battery. Needed to have at least two so I would not be out in the cold when trying to get more shots.
Can't go wrong with genuine Nikon batteries [Posted on 2007-07-05] Purchased a couple spare batteries for my Coolpix S50. I was hesitant to use an aftermarket brand, so I shopped around for a good price on real Nikon batteries from a vendor I trust: Amazon/Adorama. It looks like the price has gone up since I purchased ($17.95) so do your homework.
Spare Battery ALWAYS a good idea [Posted on 2007-12-23] I decided with the purchase of my Nikon Coolpix S51, that having the extra battery was a great idea. I have always carried spare AA with my old camera but since this camera uses a special battery, I needed one and I have certainly not be sorry. The battery life is pretty long but you never want to be without on vacation and miss that perfect shot!
Nikon Battery [Posted on 2008-03-29] Nikon original battery is not any better than knock-offs.
Knock-off batteries are 1/3 of the price. Knock-off batteries provided an equal amount of pictures per charge
Great battery, carry a spare! [Posted on 2008-10-01] My daughter has a Coolpix s52, and the original battery works great. Problem is, it lasts so long, it's easy to forget to charge it before heading out for a day of picture-taking, and I certainly don't like charging a half-charged battery. Bought a spare, problem solved. The spare holds a charge well and we swap back and forth when the primary battery poops out. It's true, generic batteries are cheaper, and I wish the Nikon battery wasn't so pricey, but still would buy it every time rather than risk it.
