My reason for leaving the battery in when the red light is on, is because a camera technician told me to run the battery totally flat before recharging it. He said that then the batteries will last longer and he was right, as I still have the original batteries.
But yes, when it decides to die on a click for a beauty, then I feel like throwing the battery into the sea, or into the dustbin 🤣🤣🤣
Btw. I think that there was a James Bond movie called "For your eyes only" 😘Hahaha, @joanstewart told me that a yellow billed Kite came to sit close to her and she didn't have her camera, as she was walking the dogs. A case of "For your eyes only" 🤣
Cheers and thanks.
It depends on the batteries I have heard, but I don't know more. I'm using the original batteries and cheap third party batteries and I can't tell a difference. I recharge them always when I have made a lot of photos. If one of these cheap one dies I don't mind - they cost just a few Euros and two of the original ones cost almost as much as a cheap camera.
Yep, sometimes such nice things happen and you can only keep them in your mind and hope if you tell it that the other one believes you 😊
Four your eyes only - yes, there was also a song, I believe.
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Isn't it the same as car spares Hannes?
To buy spares from the agents costs as much as the car did, but to buy generic parts from non agencies are on average 60% cheaper.
Just the same with the cameras, as I have one original Cano battery and 2 generic "hahnel" batteries.
So true and many that don't know me will not believe the stories of the things that I have seen.
I am sure it is the same with you 😘
Yes, I think that you are right, although I can't remember the song and I haven't seen the movie.
Believe it or not !LOLZ
Cheers and thanks.
One thing that I have noticed is that the Canon battery lasts twice as long as the generic batteries before it's flat.
Yep, Zac, it's the same, but depending on the spare parts of the car I would buy original ones for safety reasons, like parts for the brakes or such which could potentially cause an accident if they break.
Oh, I believe you 😂 !LOLZ
I haven't noticed any difference and I always take the next battery, no matter if it's a Canon or a third party one.

Oh yes, I agree as the critical has to be originals. I bought a non-genuine water pump for my BMW long ago. It was a quarter of the price and I am sure that it is still working in that car today wherever it is 😘
Thank you and I don't know if it happens to you, that when you tell a person a true story and they don't believe it. I can really catch snakes when that happens 🤣🤣🤣!LOLZ
Hahaha, I have only the one genuine Canon battery that was supplied when I bought the camera. We tried to buy two spare Canon batteries, but the price were half of my salary 🤣
Cheers and thanks.
Oh yes, sometimes when I see things, like once I was snorkeling in the sea during vacation in Croatia, I saw an octopus andnobody believed me 🤣 !LOLZ
I also have only the one original battery that came with the camera.

Yes, you know exactly what I mean and I really hate it when they refuse to believe a true story.
I just hope it was an octopus and not a squid that you saw 🤣
But at least we know it's true and then so be it selah 🤣
Nope, I can go through all 3 batteries on some days Hannes.
The two generic batteries cannot hold a full charge any more and at about 100 photos they peg out.
The Canon original lasts for much longer.
Cheers and thanks.
Octopus or squid or maybe it was just algae 🤣
I haven't had a look on the amount of photos, and I don't look which battery I take, but I am pretty sure that 200 or more photos haven't been a problem with both kinds.
