Is the charger a genuine Canon product as pictured or off brand?

As far as I know it is an original. I have 2 of them and they work great. I like this model because the battery sits down in the unit when charging and it has 2 separate light indicators, "orange" while charging, and "Green" when complete. For your question, on the back, it has information about the charger, and at the bottom, it says "Canon Inc. Made in China". It doesn't have any of the misprints in spelling that are found on many of the knock-offs, so my opinion is that it is a Canon product.

It's just as pictured, the charger is cannon, but the battery is off brand. It is a higher mAh though and works great. No problems so far and last twice as long.

I bought it on Amazon so I don't know if it is the one on the Canon website, but I ordered 2 and all three work very well. I hope this helps.

I believe it is. It looks identical to the battery that comes with the camera, same number, etc. Fits the charger perfect. It has the Canon name on it.

Buying from a reliable retailer helps assure you are not receiving a substitute. The packaging says Canon, and these have worked reliably in my Canon Pro-100 printer for a couple of years, so they probably are genuine. If you are that concerned, consider paying the full price from the manufacturer.

Yes it is. There are several re-chargers on Amazon if you do not want to depend on using the camera for re-charging.

The grip I received was counterfeit, a fake and it is not a Canon product. This came direct from Canon when I sent it to them because it didn't work properly. It takes 2 rechargable batteries.

This is the genuine canon one. Personally though, I have owned both the genuine and the off-brand grips, and both feel and function the same. If I was you, I would save myself the $100 difference and get the knock-off, it works just as well.

You can use the canon charger. It's a perfect fit plus it works great and is a lot cheaper!

YES. The battery I received looks just like the photo, with the Canon trademark name on it.

It appears to be. The packaging is as shown, with Canon printed on the box. It works well.

Is there a question?The STK Canon LE-E5 charger works as well as the original Canon charger. If you think your Canon charger is defective, this charger is a cost-effective well functioning replacement.

I can't help you with the question on that model but I can say both the battery and charger work as advertised and the charger has no problem charging my OEM Canon battery. Well worth the money spent.

I purchased this to replace the one that came with my camera that stopped working. Can't answer about it's authenticity. The Canon name was not taped over on mine. It works fine and is identical to the one that came with my camera. Hope that helps.

The charger has to say Canon Battery charger. Only taht has the three prongs to charge the Canon battery

Daniel, this is a genuine Canon battery, not a third party one. If you click on the link below the picture, it takes you to the page featuring the battery. Under the title, it says "by Canon". If it was a 3rd party battery, it would have a different name with the "by" and, if I recall from my Amazon research, the title or somewhere in the description would have something to the effect that the battery is compatible with Canon cameras. Anything that says "compatible with" is a 3rd party battery, not the genuine thing. Hope this helps. Ruth.

I did not get a counterfeit in packages or unit. It is definitely the Nitecore Sysmax charger and works great.

Should not be the case. If you purchaesed it from a US seller then it should have a US charger already in the Canon factory box. You can go back to the seller for replacement or go back to Amazon customer support for help. They will help you out.
