Cyber-shot DSC-N1 Digital Camera Battery

Backup battery

Strengths: Original Sony brand,

Weakness: none

Bought this battery as backup for my new DSC-T100 camera. Good thing is that all new Sony cameras use the same battery, so you can switch around cameras. Great addition for your traveling. This battery just keeps going and going. It also recharges in about 4 to 6 hours (depending on how low it is).

Sony NPBG1 Battery Pack

Strengths: OEM quality Sony Battery, Great shot life when shooting without flash on the W series cameras.

Weakness: Battery doesn't last long at all when flash is in use on Sony W series cameras, maybe 60 - 70 shots. Definitely need a backup.

I am very pleased with the Sony product line and the price on this battery as a back up is outstanding. As I said in the strengths and weaknesses, this battery takes a lot of pictures without the flash, but if you have to use it at all the battery wears out pretty fast. Since having the backup I don't have a problem with that anymore. I can take all the pictures I want and sort them out when I...

Sony NPBG1 DSCN1 Battery Pack Y.

Strengths: a good back up. $30.39 great price at Page computer

Weakness: I don't see any. This is OEM.

You should completely discharge your battery before recharging and need a back up as the camera does not take disposable batteries. There is no use in trying a cheap imitation as you spent a lot of money for the camera and don't want to lose pictures. This is especially true if you are using the motion picture option.

SONY NP-BG1 for DSC cyber-shot cameras

Strengths: Made in Japan. Seems to live up to its promise.

Weakness: No aftermarket replacement. Expensive.

I bought this as a second battery for my DSC-W80 camera. Not much to say about a battery except that this battery provides enough energy for around 130 to 140 photos (no flash). So the ad (140) seems to agree with the battery! The battery is made in Japan, so I think this may have better quality than the original one (made in China) that came with my camera. One time can tell.

Sony NP-BG1 Battery for Sony N1

Strengths: Good Sony quality, last longer than my previous Nickon coolpix4300's battery after charging. Slim and light weight. No memory for a rechargable is good.

Weakness: Hope this battery will last for more than a year, my previous experiences are most batteries will turn bad within a year.

I will recommend this product since it has Sony's good quality, light weight and high capacity. I purchased this for a second battery for my Sony N1, like to take this camera for a trip, light weight, long lasting battery is badly needed.

Mis - charged BG1

Strengths: Did not have time to really test it.

Weakness: Too easy to misplace in charger.

I put the Sony BG1 battery from my new H-9 upside down into a generic charger. When it would not charge, I reversed it and it charged OK - apparently. But when I put it in the camera, I get a message that says "For use with a compatible battery only" and it powers off immediately. Is there any way I can rescue this almost new battery

NP-BG1 Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack

Strengths: Lithium ion battery doesn't have "memory" limitations like conventional camera batteries

Weakness: None

These new technology batteries are great! You don't have to completely drain the battery prior to recharging like conventional metal hydride or nickel cadmium batteries. They have no "memory" so you can recharge them anytime you want. This is very convenient if it half charged but you want to start out on a trip and want a fully charged battery. This Sony replacement battery is equal to the...

Sony NPBG1 DSCN1 Battery Pack Y

Strengths: Ease of use

Weakness: None

I bought this battery to have on hand as a back-up battery for my Sony Cyber Shot camera. It's easy to charge and install in the camera. Since it is a proprietary item, I did not find any other batteries available for purchase that would work for this camera. In other words, I believe you have to buy this specific Sony battery for this camera. Less expensive options would be nice. The seller,...

Sony battery - G

Strengths: long lasting, small size

Weakness: little pricy but worth it

Recently I got a dsc-w100 and i was impressed with the stamina of the battery. I can take over 300 picture with flash without worrying that the battery is going to die. Just in case though i bought another one. I highly recommend the battery.

Small battery, works great!

Strengths: Battery is light and long lasting (300 pix)

Weakness: None

I bought this battery as a backup so I'm never caught without being able to take pictures. I would rather the camera took AA's but that's the sacrifice you make with an ultracompact camera you can take anywhere. So far I haven't needed the 2nd battery, however.
