Are these ORGINAL Sony Batteries or AFTERMARKET? If aftermarket, who is manufacturer or vendor?

After market. But they hold a charge as good as the Sony that came with the camera.

They are generic. I bought 2 spare batteries and 3 cards on line much cheaper than from Sony.

I sincerely believe this is a counterfeit Sony battery. After an overnight charge it provides about 50% of it's advertised charge. I do not recommend this item be purchased by anyone.

Yes the original Sony battery as well as an aftermarket backup battery. I preferred this bundle over others because the extra memory card was a high speed Sony card, not a cheaper version.

I read a lot of comments after buying the batteries that there seem to be quite a lot of counterfeit ones. Mine seem to be original. On top of the battery description (CR2032 in orange) the blister is "raised. For me they appear original. Hope that they are!

The battery is removable and is a Sony Lithium Ion N type. The battery model number is NP-BN and I believe the part number is 20140119WAA. I hope this helps.

I didn't see Sony printed anywhere so I assume it is an aftermarket. Most of the bulbs offered were running about $39. I tried the $50 bulb and it worked.

The extras I ordered were specifically labeled Sony and this looks like that same one. I did order one used that had a "buy one get one free". One was a Sony battery the other was a no-name which I threw away (not sure if any of this helps).

I checked my batteries and I don't see any OEM on the label...Label states only Amazon Basics rechargeable/AAAHR03/NiMH 1.2V 800mAh/Standard Charge:80mA in 15 hours/Do not disassemble, short-circuit,or dispose of in fire. Made in China/Mfg. Date OCT 2012 No other writing or indicators on them...they work a treat, though...I am very happy with them in my household cordless phones!

Yes, they both use the Sony NP-BG1 battery. (Or equivalent generic battery. I have had very good results with the Wasabi Power version of the battery, available on Amazon.com with an external charger for a very reasonable price.)

so, where can you buy a battery for the Sony 600? I find nothing on the web.

I suggest you check the SONY website or Amazon.com, usually they list compatible batteries as accessories for the unit. Sorry, I can't be more help in this instance. JZ

I don't know. I've barely used them. The two I received did not look like the picture; the font was much smaller and lighter I could barely see it and they did not have a QR code. Plus, seem like something oozed underneath the green skin darkening it, like when you bruise your skin. These were my first and only vtc5's so I have no comparison.

Sony discontinued them. They are out of stock everywhere. Good luck. Beware of fakes. The market is flooded with counterfeit Sony US18650VTC5 batteries now.

I am not an expert in batteries, but I have used enough gear in the Military to know if it says Compatibility error it could be simply not seated correctly and the contacts may not be making full contact. That is the easy fix. The other work around is if the batter actually works and does not heat up your camera it might be an error code that simply shows up. I get those on my car and for the most part they are due to small issues not related to anything in particular. As I stated, have a different model, but since this is not a Factory Sony Battery it might cause an error to show up on your screen. My question is does it not work at all? Does your device not function? If so, you may have to return the battery and actually buy the OEM Battery from Sony. Usually I take a deep breath, check the connection(s) again and find that the fix is actually easier than the headache. If not, replacing it might be your only option. You can send me more detail and Amazon can forward it to me... I know a lot, but sometimes things just do not function as expected. I hope that helps a bit. Sincerely, a Retired Army SGM.

Genuine Sony batteries will have the "Use by date" stamped on the back of the package.However, this date varies widely from 2017 to 2025 depending on sellers.Read the "Condition" description carefully before making your purchase.
