Canon 300d owners,(D10?) I was at Walmart this weekend,(picking up MORE pampers which I must say never pack enough, anyway) I stopped by the electronic dept. looking for cd-rw's when I saw a battery that looked like the same one for my 300d. It said it fit the D10 and it was on clearance for $15.00 so I decided to pick it up and give it a try. I ran the battery all day Sunday taking about 200 shot with no problem and it still has a 50% charge to it. It looks to be a great second battery with is a plus since I just bought my battery grip. If your interested the battery is a Digital Concept model CB-511. And like I said earlier it was only $15.00. Just thought I share. |

The BP-511 battery used in the 300D/10D/etc. is one of Canon's most popular batteries. It is also used in a large number of their camcorders. It is another benefit of owning of those cameras -- cheap, readily-available third-party batteries! |

I'll have to keep an eye out for those here at Canadian Walmarts. Thanks.

You don't have to go to Walmart to get third party BP-511 replacements. You can get them even cheaper than $15 on Ebay. I have purchased 4 from 3 different sellers. All are rated higher than the 1100 mAh Canon original, and thus last longer in your camera. |

HEY! By shopping EBAY you are going to put Walmart out of business and ruin big town America! Shame on you for wanting a lower price. Greedy $@&!
Note to people that take things to seriously, I'm just kidding. |
