What’s your experience with Wasabi batteries? I’ve heard mixed reviews on 3rd party ones not holding charge as well as Sony’s.
I personally prefer to buy only original Sony batteries, but among generic batteries, Wasabi are the only I would recommend.
Yeah I’ll probably stick to the Sony’s especially given the NP-FZ100 has such a long battery life I won’t need as many as I used to. But good to know, thanks!
What about the wasabi charger, is it okay to use that?
Given the issues with their batteries, I wouldn’t risk it.
