Great Batteries @ A Great Price,
I was a little skeptical about ordering these batteries for my new Sony A77 since it is such a new camera. Batteries these days have proprietary crap in them that only allows genuine Sony over priced batteries to work in their equipment. Save your money and buy these. Both the batteries work great. I haven’t tested them yet for how long they last but with a higher 2200 mAh then the stock 1600 mAh, it should theoretically last longer. The only down side to these batteries is that the camera needs a little bump to get the batteries out. Its not because the batteries are bigger then stock, because their not, its because the electrical pins from the camera that fit into the batteries are a bit tight. I over time this should loosen up a bit or I might just fix it myself by making the fittings in the batteries larger with an all. Not a deal breaker. They are going in my new grip anyways as soon as it arrives.
) Oh, the charger works great also. The bonus I think is that it is also compatible with you 12V outlet in your vehicle for on the go charging. This however should never need to happen seeing how I know have 3 batteries for my camera now. Another reviewer said the batteries will not fit in the Sony battery charger which is not true. I’d advise that person to try again. My Wasabi Power Batteries fit and charge in my Sony charger.

|Strong Batteries,
I purchased the Wasabi batteries for my Sony A-77 camera. They actually out perform the battery that came with the camera. I can get an average of 200 more shots with them. The 12v car adapter is a nice added touch also. I have not had the chance to use it yet though, no need with 2 extra batteries. I run out of memory card before I do batteries now! The only problem is you have to carry 2 chargers with you when you travel, as the new batteries will not fit in the Sony charger.

|My review for the Wasabi Battery/Sony NP-FM500H,
I was asked to photograph a wedding and realized I needed an extra battery. I hit amazon.com (cause that’s where I go when in need) and found this Wasabi battery for my Sony camera at Blue Nook.
I was nervous about buying a product for my camera that wasn’t made by Sony. I was scared that the battery wouldn’t fit in my camera or last long enough. Holy Cow! Let me tell you what, this battery lasted longer than the battery that came with my camera! I spent 5 hours taking pictures of the bride and bridesmaids and decided to change batteries before the ceremony because there was only 19% left on the old battery. Slapped in the new battery and took pictures at the ceremony and reception. When I got home that night and checked the battery it still had 40%. I think I could have used this one battery all day or I could have kept shooting till after midnight! Very pleased with this purchase!! And extra kudos to Blue Nook for making my overnight order truly overnight. I placed my order late afternoon and had it in my hand at 10am the next morning!
