Content: I charged it, discharged it, recharged it to get started. Also used it until completely discharged and then recharged it. When I use this battery my Canon 1D MKII has from 2 to 5 "err99"s per charge. It is simple to clear by popping the battery and turning the camera back on. But this is quite distracting. Since this is my hobby, no money has been lost due to this malfunction. I have two other batteries and the err99 does not occur with them, regardless of battery level or type shooting I am doing. Otherwise, it is fine.
Summary: Works fine, but...

Content: It works.. It has a fitting in the battery compartment issue (Lock).. I'm not sure about the rubber seal fitting properly and sealing the battery compartment either..

Content: Battery fits Canon 1D just fine. 500 shots or so (more?) on first run (over 3 hrs). So far - as good as the original for sure.
Summary: as good as the canon but a lot cheaper

Content: The fit and compatibility were not issues with this battery. I have literally taken this battery on multiple shoots using a 70-200 f/2.8L IS and have not had to recharge it since the initially charge. I am still on the first charge after a few hundred shots using this energy-sucking lens on a Canon 1d Mark II!
If you are money conscious and don't mind using a non-Canon brand battery, this seems to be a good choice.
Summary: Great value for the price

Content: I admit, the OEM Canon battery is expensive and overpriced. If you are a professional photographer this is not worth the money - it may work 'okay' for amateur shooters.
Pro's:
The only pro about the product is the price.
Con's:
- Not a 'perfect fit' to the (MARK IIn) camera. it's 98% there - but I'm not risking it. Although the camera never shut off, it did have trouble turning on right after changing the battery - forcing me to re-insert.
It is not a 'snug' fit - which means it does not make a water resistant seal around the battery compartment. As a pro shooter I have to shoot in less than Ideal conditions (beach, rain, mist, etc) - not risking it.
- Short useage. Battery was low after only about 600 shots (non flash, driving a 70-210 f2.8 - review set at 2 sec). The OEM easily did twice that.
In short it would take two to three of these to get the same use as the OEM - and with the contact / water resistant issues that this item poses I think it's best to pay the premium for the (overpriced) OEM.
Summary: Not woth the money.
