Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Minolta NP200 Lithium Ion Battery for Dimage X, Xi, and Xt Digital Cameras
Customer Review: Not enough power
Summary: 3 Stars
Not enough power to really give enough pictures for the camera. It dies after a short period, especially if you use the flash. Unfortunately, if you have the camera, you don't have any choices.Customer Review: It's working fine for now...
Summary: 2 Stars
It's worth it to purchase a Minolta battery and not a no-name brand that replaces the NP200. So far, this genuine battery has a good battery life and recharges to its full capacity.Customer Review: Some help for you, if you buy this
Summary: 4 Stars
Heat.
Heat is your friend.
Cold is the enemy.
I take this snowboarding. You CAN NOT use the Beltclip
carry case for this, if you are in the cold. Place it
in your pocket, with a Heat pack.
I have walked out the door with a FULLY charged battery,
only to see the Red, Battery dying light.
Ignor this.
If you keep it warm, it will last longer.
The hotter the battery is, the longer it lasts.
I have gotten many photos after the red light, by
turning the camera on, the quickly snapping a photo,
then turning it off.
And keeping the camera warm, when not in use.
YOU NEED A SECOND BATTERY!!!!
Taking about 40 pictures at Disnaey World, will
use up ONE battery, if your fussing with the camera
on, and looking at the picture you took.
Just for your help. :)
Customer Review: poor battery/charger/carmera battery control
Summary: 2 Stars
When I just bought Dimage Xt, it was able to take ~200 photos with fully charged battery. After 1 year, camera started to show "low battery" sign at power on, even when the battery was freshly charged, and the sign turned into red after ~50 photos and camera shutdown itself after that. Then I bought a new battery, the same thing happened as soon as I started to use it, I can only take ~60 photos with the new battery. I don't know the problem came from battery, battery charger, or battery controller in camera.
While you can keep a few batteries as backup, but sometime it's not an option. I have a marine kit and take underwater photo, and it's a hassel to change battery in water.
Customer Review: Worked as advertised
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this battery as a backup for my Minolta Dimage X. It works as well as the original. These batteries charge quickly... but also don't last very long (at least not in my camera). I find that I can take about 200 pictures with the LCD viewer on before battery life degradates to an annoying level.
