Canon CB-5L Battery Charger

2008-07-26
Ordered this product from Adorama to replace my misplaced battery charger. Got it in a couple of days. I was blown away by the service from this company. The charger is the exact one that came with my camera and was so much cheaper than purchasing it from the manufacturer. The charger works perfectly.

I bought this as my son was travelling out of country and the reviews indicated that charger came with cables for all countries. Not the case! Only came with a cord for the US. Looking back at the product description, there is no indication of what cables come with the charger. If it used to come with many cables, Canon no longer includes them. On contacting Canon, they told me I could buy the other cables at an electronics store. Not what I expected. Worked fine for US, but didn't fit what I expected.

Great Charger

I purchased this charger 10 months ago to replace the original Canon G2 charger that never seemed to work when I needed it most.

Although I bought a backup battery, the original battery I thought could have been the problem has been holding a good charge since I have been using the CB-5L charger. I love it!

Only used it a couple of times. Far superior to the brand x charger I had previously. LED readout handy in determining when batter is fully charged.

Just a charger

I bought the Canon CB-5L after the cheap knockoff I got on ebay died a week after I got it. There's not much to say about the CB-5L. I started by putting a totally discharged Canon BP511 battery (with no so-called "memory" build-up) in it. A "red" indicator light came on which immediately turned steadily green. I removed and reseated the battery several times. Was the battery fully charged? Who knows! I left the battery to charge several hours just in case. Does the charger do its job? Well, yes. My problem is with the charge level indicator. There are three valued printed on the charger housing: 0, 50, 100. The indicator is supposed to be a nlinking light indicator that functions as time indicator of how much charging time is left. Doesn't work for me. Maybe my charger is defective.

The charging unit feels light and flimsy. Not comfortable calling it "high quality". That's my 2 cents on it.

better than any third party charger

I bought it as a gift for a digital camera/video I'd gotten a few years ago, so that I could send it to a couple who had a new baby boy. They are pleased with it and thanked me for such a great gift not only of the camera but also the charger and a battery that would last 8 hrs to shoot their Christmas 2006.

This charger does exactly what is supposed to, very quickly. There is a cordless model that is a bit more compact.

It is just what a charger should be : light weight, simple to use, dependable. I would recommend it over any other charger.

	Sony Cybershot DSCS90 4.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value. HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos. The handbook includes color and b&w images, a glossary, and sidebars and Web links for further technical details.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
