Ours is an HX9V. the battery fits, charges and performs seemingly as well as original . Have no fresh new oem to compare so charge/usage cycle is subjective...

See my review here. This is a perfect replacement for the Sony battery. I have the HX9V which is nearly identical to the 5V, and it fits perfectly. It is EVER so slightly more snug in the charger than the original, but not noticeable at all in the camera. Battery life is longer than my original Sony battery, and unlike the original battery, it gives remaining battery life in minutes. I don't have my gear with me, but I believe the estimated time for photos is around 300+ minutes, which has seemed pretty accurate, though I haven't tested it. At this price, I HIGHLY recommend this product, and it's very well-made. I will certainly be ordering a few more for backup on long trips. See my review here.

We just took this battery to Florida for our Disney Trip where we took about 1100 pictures. We charged it every night, but really didn't need to. It held its charge and we had no problems. Buy this battery with confidence! Do not waste time with knock-offs!!

I haven't had the batteries long enough to use up their original charge, can't help much! Sorry.

Battery is the same as the one that came with my Sony HX20v. Charges, displays battery life, works great. It's comforting to always have a good backup battery.

I have the hx5v and these replacement batteries are great. No issues at all. Fits in the camera, fits in charger just fine. As another poster noted, these batteries provide remaining minutes info which can be helpful.

I have one as my primary and as a spare. I have only had them about 1 and 2 yrs respectively. They are awesome. My wife has taken thousands of pictures on these batteries, I am sure they have been charged many times. At Amazon's price, they definitely are a deal!

The battery is rechargeable. I bought it a couple of years ago and did not use it too much, so I gave it to my brother. He loves it because you can film underwater, but to be honest it did not work out for me since there is NO DIFFERENCE between this camera and filming with your standard camera (in my case a Sony Cybershot). Hope my answer is useful to you! Regards from Argentina, Gabby

It has been over a year since Ive been on a shoot, so I can't recall exactly. But here is a link to the comment page of the battery, hope it helps!- http://www.amazon.com/Sony-NP-QM91D-Lithium-Ion-DCR-DVD101-Camcorders/product-reviews/B00008NV1P/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints;=1

you probably have 'clone' battery & not an actual Sony battery--the clone batteries will work OK in the older cameras like the H50 or W150, but NOT in the 'HX" series like the HX5V or HX100V--this message pops up in the newer cameras taking this battery because their power requirements are much higher if it is a cheap 'clone'--you can even take a battery that has gone dead from an "HX" series camera and put it in an "H" series camera and still shoot several frames--this is why I mentioned in my review about being a real Sony battery--I am sure that what you have is a counterfeit battery you probably have 'clone' battery & not an actual Sony battery--the clone batteries will work OK in the older cameras like the H50 or W150, but NOT in the 'HX" series like the HX5V or HX100V--this message pops up in the newer cameras taking this battery because their power requirements are much higher if it is a cheap 'clone'--you can even take a battery that has gone dead from an "HX" series camera and put it in an "H" series camera and still shoot several frames--this is why I mentioned in my review about being a real Sony battery--I am sure that what you have is... » Read More you probably have 'clone' battery & not an actual Sony battery--the clone batteries will work OK in the older cameras like the H50 or W150, but NOT in the 'HX" series like the HX5V or HX100V--this message pops up in the newer cameras taking this battery because their power requirements are much higher if it is a cheap 'clone'--you can even take a battery that has gone dead from an "HX" series camera and put it in an "H" series camera and still shoot several frames--this is why I mentioned in my review about being a real Sony battery--I am sure that what you have is a counterfeit battery « Show Less

I frankly don't remember, it was for a fellow employee. But I did recently purchase a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W620 14.1 MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD in Silver + 8GB SDHC + Sony Case + Card Reader + Replacement Battery + Accessory Kit for $128 for everything here on Amazon. We were very impressed with everything plus it saved ordering everything separately. Compare the two cameras and see if it measures up. I'm sorry I couldn't help with your question. Have a great day :)

I don't have the time to look for the warranty information, but I would check that first to see if the camera is under warranty. I did look up the Camera on Sony's Asia Pacific website & found some information that might be useful to you. Here's the link: http://www.sony-asia.com/support/faq/433701/product/dsc-w670 Here's the support link. The FAQs might be helpful to you: http://www.sony-asia.com/product/dsc-w670 And, I purchased a 2nd battery & am considering purchasing a 3rd battery because the battery life is so short. This is the batter I purchased. I see one reviewer tested it & wasn't happy with it, but you can take a look: http://www.amazon.com/ABC-Products%C2%AE-rechargeable-Cybershot-Cyber-Shot/dp/B0082DIZO0/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

I have had the camera on for taking pictures and video for about 6 hours straight and no issues with the battery. I continued to take pictures and video the rest of the weekend on and off. I have not had to charge it yet. I did not try to run the camera completely out yet either. I am very impressed with this camera so far especially the zoom and colors.

Hi Robin, I do not have that answer. It has been charged and holding the charge but not much time on camera usage.

Hi! I ended up using rechargeable sony batteries... they lasted a long time...and I always kept a spare pair... I didn't want a missed photo opportunity!My new camera has a different kind of lithium battery that needs its own charger... It's annoying because if the battery loses all its charge, I can't just throw in a couple of duracell AA's and keep shooting photos... I have to wait for a recharge ... or buy an extra battery for several $$$ I hope this helps! ps... I also know that cold temperatures really knock down battery life.

The batteries are a even match with the stock battery. The only problem is only after 3 months of use one of the batteries quit charging. I have yet try to get a replacement battery. There isn't any sourse of contact to get this replace. So, I suggest try another company battery and there are a few out ther you can try. I can't say get this one, once purchase you are on your own. I was on a photo shoot about a weeks time over 3,000 shots. One of them fail still good odds thou. But for the price I hope this works for you...

I've used it when fully charged but never run it down completely. I have the Sony CX230 Handycam, which shows full charge for recording at 6 hrs 50 mins, that's a lot of recording time. The size and weight actually makes the camera feel more substantial. It's comfortable to hold and adds some balance when zooming in, not heavy or bulky. I use this battery as my main battery and keep the original FV30 as backup, which I haven't needed so far.The longest nonstop recording I've made so far is 30 mins, the battery still held almost 6 hours for recording. Playback obviously shows a different battery life, but it was still over 5 hours with the one charge.Hope this helps. I've used it when fully charged but never run it down completely.
