  works perfect. not much to say. it's the same battery as ships with my camera, so I expected no problems. SD700 IS.

  Works well, holds a charge, lasts 2 hours, depending on what you are doing with the camera.

  I bought one of these batteries as a spare at the same time I purchased my SD870IS, for a trip to Oregon. Well, I didn't need it because the stock battery took 187 pictures over a 1 week period, finally croaking the last day of my trip. Amazing battery life! I'll give this 5-stars since it's the same battery.

  What can I say? The battery is the exact same as supplied with the camera (Canon PowerShot SD800 IS 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Image-Stabilized Optical Zoom), and has a great battery life.
  
  There are, of course, other batteries that are made to imitate this one, sold for much cheaper, but they could damage the camera and void the warranty. Obviously, buying one made by Canon is always a safer option and is more reliable.
  
  Small note: when bringing spare Li-ion batteries (like this one) on airplanes, they are not allowed to be kept in checked baggage - they must be put in your carry-on bags and be put in a "protective case" to avoid having the battery discharge and overheat.

  Purchased from We Sell Bulk here on Amazon and received the item much faster than predicted delivery date - I only say that because there's always a list and it's often difficult to pick which seller is the one to go with. Anyhow, the battery came in original and undamaged Canon packaging (looks just like the images available in product description). I was not about to buy the cheap knockoffs and was worried that the one I ordered would be any different than the one that came with the camera (damaged item or store return). Well, after a couple charges and hundreds of pictures, I can say that this battery is exactly the same as our original. It lasts just as long and charges in the same amount of time. Our camera is fairly new so it was a fair comparison - one battery wasn't all that much older than the other.
