Title: Buy only Canon batteries not cheap Chinese knock-offs
Review: I bought a generic Chinese "equivalent" bp-511 battery that boasted a higher milliamperage rating and a cheaper price than the original Canon battery that came with my camera. The battery worked fine for about 3 months and now only holds a charge for about 20 minutes. I have had it fail at critical times. Never ever buy some knock-off Chinese battery--read the reviews. The Chinese push out their crappy knock-offs to unsuspecting consumers (like I was) just to make a quick buck. Also, don't trust the glowing reviews from the generic sellers. They are self-generated. In my case, the seller is no longer selling under his original company name. He has a new name with the requisite (sham) glowing reviews. CHINESE PRODUCTS SUCK.
