Does this display the remaining battery life on the camcorder? Does it sync up to it like the actual Canon battery?

Yes, it is identical to the battery that comes with the camera. I have no measurements to show how long it lasts but just from general use it seems to me to last just as long as the original. I have the optional wall charger and this battery recharges just as quickly as the original. I do not shoot a lot of video but with a mix of stills and video both of my batteries last a long time. It might have been overkill to have a second one but I feel a lot better always having a hot backup.

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

Yes,it does I do suggest that you get another Canon battery not a copy (had bad luck with copy,burst when on vacation). No I do not work for Canon.

Which camera? I didn't see a name listed. I am using it with the Sony FS700 and it works, although you don't get an accurate battery life reading in either the camera or the charger. The charger does indicate when the battery is full, but it does not show the charging process. I use it with the Odyssey 7Q RAW recorder and it works perfect with that since the 7Q indicated battery life with Voltage instead of a fancy bar graphic. I don't use it much with the camera, mostly just for the 7Q recorder and it works fine for that.

Answer here...That is not the model camcorder I have so I cannot answer that question. Suggest you check the manufacturer's website for that model and see what it battery it identifies for that model..

While I have not timed how long it lasts, I can say that it runs a lot longer then the battery that came with my Canon video camera. I shot over three hours of video (over a total of ten hours) at a wedding before I replaced it with the original battery. Well worth the money.

I've been using both batteries consistently since I've bought them. The readout on the screen will initially say over 9 hours but I record in 1080p and get 26 actual seconds for every minute it says I have. Both batteries in real world testing, about 4 hours 30 minutes of actual use.

yes, this really depends on the camera. Some camera does not duplicate the picture from the viewfinder but just the recorded signal only. My Canon camera does not show for example any status information about battery, zoom, exposure or minutes left on the memory card which would be very useful to have on a recording monitor. I don't know this is with other cameras in general.

If you mean the camera shows the accurate battery usage, yes it does. Because this battery grip does not have any LCD display in it.

Yes, this does show the battery level and works just as well as the original that came with my camera. Enjoy!

I'm guessing you're asking if the battery charge-level indicator on the camera display works when the grip is attached. Yes it does. It works with both Canon OEM and aftermarket batteries.

yes, I noticed mine does the same... when I first purchased this batt. for a while it would charge up to 100%, now it only goes to 95%. I charge with ac wall plug to camcorder and it shows now only 399min. When before it would be over 400min. There is no big deal with this cause I still have plenty of batt. power & have 2 extra 2hr. batt. for backup.

The Canon Vixia HF G10 uses the Canon BP 808, 809, 819, and 827. The BP 808 came with the camcorder. I purchased the Maxtek 4.5 hr battery and it charges and operates the camcorder with no issue. There is a statement in the manual that a non-Canon battery will not work. I assume they really mean a noncompliant spec for the canon battery. I have used it quite a bit videotaping my gymnasts and it works fine. It does stick out a bit from the camcorder body.

This looks very much like the backup battery that I bought for my FZ40, which works fine. One tip: This battery will probably NOT show you remaining charge, so I use it first in a heavy use situation (such as a major trip), and when it runs down, I switch to the Panasonic battery, which does display remaining charge. That way I know for that day how much juice I have left, and I can budget my shots to cover the time until I can re-charge. Hope that's helpful!

the battery level does show but it goes from full to empty skipping the half full part but considering the price and the fact that it gives you the same warning as the canon until the battery completely dies its a really good deal.
