Re: AA batteries for 5D MkII | |
i would be very interested to have a link to one of these companies, because the AAs i'm using in a 5D2 grip are getting drained faster than i would like, and i have yet to find a product that mimics the OEM batt function-for-function.
It was a UK company called "Digital Rev" that was marketing LP-E6 clones on eBay. They advertised:
Full compatibility LP-E6 Battery for Canon EOS 5D II. This battery has built-in SN chip, and is fully compatible with EOS 5D II battery information standard. This Battery does NOT require those 3rd party chargers to work. Simply use your own Canon original charger. Works just like original batteries.
They don't have an auction live right now for them, but this was the old auction address:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LP-E6-LPE6-Compatible-Battery-For-Canon-5D-Mark-II-1649_W0QQitemZ120395030726
Either they sold out (I wouldn't expect their supplier to be cranking them out any faster than Canon's) or they had problems.
