The energy consumption of digital cameras is extremely high because of the extensive technology. For this reason, you should do without normal batteries, because they would be completely discharged after just a few hours. Rechargeable batteries are not only cheaper, but also more environmentally friendly. With most modern digital camera models, however, the question "batteries or rechargeable batteries?" no longer arises, because many of them are equipped with their own rechargeable batteries anyway, which are specially adapted to the respective camera. Thus, they offer an optimal runtime and are also recharged in a short time.
However, a single camera battery is not enough for most photographers. As soon as it is empty, it has to be recharged with a charger. This means that it takes a few hours before the camera can be used again. Unless you have a spare battery in your luggage. Then you simply exchange the batteries and continue taking pictures as usual. But there are other reasons why it is sometimes necessary to look for a new battery: Although modern lithium-ion batteries are very high quality and durable, their lifespan is nevertheless limited. After a certain number of charges, their capacity decreases, so that the battery life is reduced. Then it is time to replace the old battery with a new model.
For this reason, you will find a large selection of batteries for digital cameras in this category. We carry original batteries as well as compatible versions from other manufacturers. You don't know how to find the right battery for your camera? Or are you unsure whether to choose an original or third-party battery? Then scroll down to the bottom of our shop, where we have prepared a comprehensive buying guide for you. This will ensure that nothing goes wrong when buying a battery!
The purchase of a new battery for a digital camera can be necessary for various reasons: Photographers often feel the need to have a second battery for their camera in order to have a spare at hand at any time. This is especially important when you are travelling and want to avoid suddenly being unable to continue taking photos just because your battery is flat. With another battery in your luggage, you have the possibility to simply exchange the empty battery for the charged replacement and continue shooting. Therefore, you are simply more flexible and spontaneous when it comes to using your camera. Of course, buying a new battery is also necessary if the old model is completely broken or no longer performs satisfactorily. A high-quality lithium-ion battery can survive several hundred charging cycles, but by then at the latest it loses capacity.
For many current camera models, you will find not only the original batteries in our range, but also replacement batteries from third-party manufacturers. Whether one is suitable for you or not is a difficult decision. It is not uncommon for the camera models and the original batteries to each be equipped with a chip. The chip is used for communication between the battery and the camera and transmits important data such as the number of charges, the state of charge, the age, the duration of use and the serial number. But the battery is also integrated for economic reasons, because the manufacturers want to ensure that consumers do not switch to cheaper third-party manufacturers. With very cheap replacement batteries from other manufacturers, it can happen that you insert the battery but the camera cannot be switched on. In addition, the battery sometimes cannot be charged with the normal charger. This is due to the missing chip. For this reason, some batteries from other manufacturers come with a separate charger. However, our range only includes batteries that do not have these faults. They are guaranteed to work flawlessly and replace the original battery 100 per cent. And if you still have problems and the battery does not communicate correctly with your camera, then simply contact our service team. We will help you as quickly as possible.
