Better Quality Sony Battery
Christopher from Cary, NC on 6/2/2019
I've purchased cheaper batteries online. I read that the Sony batteries hold a charge longer and will last longer than the cheaper batteries. I can confirm that this battery holds a charge twice as long as the cheaper batteries. When I would break-in the cheap batteries, I would go through at least 2 of them in a busy day. With this new Sony battery, I'm able to use one battery for the entire day of shooting photographs.
Pros: Holds charge longer
Cons: A little pricey

Sony NP-FW50
Crutchfield customer from Charlottesvle, VA on 12/25/2017
I am using this battery on my Sony A7 II camera. The battery life will last for around 350 shots. It is not that much long. Therefore, I always have a spare battery. Also, it will be recharged very fast.
Pros: Not good enough compared to other competitors
Cons: Fast recharging

Battery Charger
Lindi from Vista , CA on 9/16/2017
I am very happy with the short time that it takes for the battery to recharge. It seems to have a long enough time while in use. I have only used it for three weeks.

Solid buy
Christopher from Los Angeles, CA on 4/21/2017
The Alpha series cameras are amazing but go through these batteries like crazy. If you want a good days amount of shooting pictures and video, then you will need at least two if not three of these batteries!
Pros: Holds charge relatively well when not in use
Cons: Expensive but pretty much a required investment for the Sony Alpha cameras.

Features
Compatibility: The Sony NP-FW50 W-series InfoLithium rechargeable battery-pack is compatible with select Sony NEX hybrid digital cameras and Sony α (alpha series) DSLR cameras.
InfoLithium: All Sony InfoLithium batteries incorporate an IC chip that communicates with the camcorder to provide the amount of time remaining on the battery. This feature is known as the Accu-Power meter and the battery time remaining is displayed in the viewfinder or LCD.
Lithium-Ion: Lithium-ion batteries provide superior ease of use and recording time when compared to Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) batteries. Unlike Ni-Cad batteries, you can recharge them at any time without developing any memory effect.
Battery Life: Up to 330 shots. Actual battery life depends on a number of factors, including camera model, selected shooting options, and temperature.
