Great to see numbers on fresh batteries. Come back after 100 or so discharge/charge cycles and report on the capacity. You examined only 1 small part of the overall cost.
It's hard to beat DSTE (for any camera system) for price/performance indeed. As I've already said, DSTE are the only third-party batteries I use now for my both Nikon and Fuji cameras at home, and also for a bunch of Panasonics (GH3/4/5/5s) at work. They have proved to be quite reliable over the years - they don't loose the capacity fast and dont swell with time like many off-brand batteries do.
Great roundup! Though, I'd be very interested to see a 6mo-1yr follow-up to see how these hold up after multiple uses. By the way, good job on the infographics. Nice bit of polish and very useful!
When there was a drought in 3rd party batteries for the a7iii (except for the sold out and much too expensive wasabis) I went with a bunch of King-Mah batteries off of Ali Express. They took some time to get in, but I've been quite happy with their performance so far!
And the result will most likely be exactly the same :) DSTE batteries are the only non-originals I use now for my both Nikon and Fuji cameras at home, and also for a bunch of Panasonics (GH3/4/5/5s) at work.

"The DSTE backup power Kit features two batteries and a dual charging dock let your journey always powerful" with only 10 reviews on Amazon but a great review by you, I will give them a try. I have BM FW50 batteries for some other sonys and they don't hold a charge at all. The best thing about them was the charger I can use in my car. let your journey always powerful
A recent Amazon review is stating that the newest Sony A7III Firmware 3.10 is giving a warning with the DSTE battery. Have you had any (major) problems using 3rd-party batteries with updated Sony firmware? Or is it just a scare tactic? It would be cool to revisit this topic since people are continuing to buy the A7III. Thanks! And great videos as always!
To my knowledge, something that's fairly important but hard to test is how betteries lose capacity over time. There a many brands that can make a decent capacity unit at the beginning of it's life, but will lose it quickly. The quality of the charger is also important and it 's probably better to buy the original one despite using third party batteries. I use Patona batteries on the GH5 and always charge them with the original one. They a pretty close the the capacity of tue lumix battery and after one year seem to be good as new. I also try to do full charge-discharge cicle most of the time, I guess that helps as well.
Thanks, I have both A7RIII and A7III and both the Meike and Sony grips, so yes I could use some extra batteries to go along with my four Sony batteries. Cheers
When I got my GH5 I bought a bunch of 3rd party batteries. Then weird stuff started happening. My GH5's monitor started flickering regardless of battery strength. So, I've since bought Panasonic made batteries. Yes, it cost me more money. But, now, no more flickering or any other issues.
My GH5 fell into "I'll kill my shutter now" mode when it was powered by one of the 3rd party batteries and I was shooting photos. I guess the battery failed to hold the required current/voltage for the mechanical shutter to properly open and close, the shutter was doing several unsuccessful attempts to cycle properly per second, monitor went all stripy and camera stopped reacting to anything. I had to pull out the battery to stop this madness and I never used that battery again. I can imagine GH5 killing its shutter pretty quickly if left unattended shooting time lapses with mechanical shutter on and a 3rd party battery in.
You are the man, I almost ordered a pair of wasabi batteries earlier today. I used DSTE on my canon and they worked great. So looks like you saved me again.
Really appreciate you taking the time to do such an in depth review. This is probably the best review for any camera equipment I have seen based on how much time it must have taken! FOR BATTERIES!!! Respect to you. It's a like and subscribe from me.
I'd love to be able to spend a little less on the FZ100 batteries but I figure in the long run it's probably just worth it to spend the $78 on the Sony batteries. For lasting performance and overall reliability I think it makes the most sense. After all it's a $2k camera body and spending about 4% that for an extra battery and again around 4% for the external charger really isn't a bad deal at all for the technology you're using it with.
Hey Caleb, long time fan here. Awesome video, also highly appreciate the more humorous approach and funny touches, more of that will speed up your growth I think!
Third party batteries deteriorate much quicker than official ones. If you're a working professional batteries should be your least of concerns. So If you can drop 2K on a camera you can sneeze few more on original battery.
BRUH, when you said "It doesn't come with a charger"..... I ordered a damn OEM battery I thought the camera would at least come with a battery charger! I'm shoooktih.... WHy did I buy this camera in 2020
So I ended up taking your recommendation from the livestream you did a few weeks back and got the a7iii! And you did a fantastic job with this review. So detailed, and helpful, but I had already purchased some other 3rd party batteries lol. The camera will be here tomorrow, I am pumped to get back to work!
Hey Caleb! Long time fan, i check in every 2 -3 days for new videos and sometimes end up watching hours of your great content! One thought I had is, if someone comes across your video and likes the setup you are shooting with (in this video you mentioned its the a7III) maybe you could start a new thing in the description of each video in text , of what camera+lens you are using and any additional lights used, just incase you maybe have not verbally mentioned it in the video. Thanks for all your hard work!
Much appreciated Caleb! Love the use of Metal Gear enemy alert SFX, especially when you upped the pitch for the charger! (awesome touch, had me laughing). Keep up the wonderful work and information. Till next time!
So one big thing is missing here. something critical... this are all brand new batteries. How long they can keep this power. What happens after one month, or three months of daily usage and recharge? Also how reliable is the percentage information after that time? People forget that...
This is cool, but the longevity and accuracy of battery left overtime is what I’m more concerned about. The DSTE might hold half the battery a few years down the road.
Thanks great review. The dste here is 25 including a charger... As per the Meike battery grip i would be very careful i had it for two month and got various file errors, funky changes on camera shutter, random freeze. And if you look on blogs you'll find this problem well acknowledged with previous grips for other Sony cameras. Watch out.
More than cost per hour, for me the biggest reason to get original Sony batteries is just because they maintain their ability to recharge efficiently for a lot longer. I haven’t done any scientific tests or anything, but I used five batteries while my A7II was my main camera - two were original sony, and then others were wasabi. One of the wasabi batteries ended up getting a little bloated to where it wouldn’t even fit in the camera, and the other two hardly last at all and drop from like 50% to zero in a matter of minutes. The Sony batteries still work great, even though they’ve probably seen the heaviest use out of the five. Granted, I beat the heck out of my batteries and they spend a lot of time in hot backpacks in the sun and stuff like that, so maybe you can get away with lesser batteries if you’re just in a studio setting or something, but now that I upgraded to the A7riii, I’m sticking to original batteries just because I think it’ll pay off in the long run.
Dropping , li bo battery's , isn't a wise thing to do .... they aren't impact damage resistant ! Hours of single run time ..... is one thing but remember how many total charges it can last ! is the cost effectiveness :)
Damn, I really love all your videos, it's like video/photography gear school. My primary language is spanish, however your english is so sweet and I understand everything you say. Thank you for all your videos because even do I just have a nikon d3300 I have learned a lot of things from your videos and purchase different stuffs on internet based on your recommendations. Thank you DSLR Video Shooter
Hi, Caleb. I follow you since years and love your videos so much. I’m actually a Canon user, but I think it is same for all brands. I wanna buy couple of third party batteries for my Canon camera and to be honest, I’m a little bit skeptical about these cheap knockoff batteries from Amazon. Okay, they are cheap and therefore not a big expectation, but... The key question: Can the third party batteries harm the camera? I’ve bought plenty of photography/videography gears with your suggestions over the years and I was never disappointed. If you say that the third party batteries don’t harm the cameras, I‘ll go and order the batteries right away. :D Wish you a great day!! 👍😊
Pretty awesome, thanks for testing these out, I didn’t have any other options when I got the camera, so I already own 4 of the original battery’s 😅 But will certainly look at the cheaper options when I buy my next one 👊🏻
@DSLRvideoshooter just a heads up. The affiliate link for the DTSE didnt work for me. thanks for doing this, I found it extremely useful and it provided a really good rational. Looking forward to learning more.
Hey Caleb, nice review roundup! Have you considered Powerextra batteries. The DSTE and Wasabi batteries seems to be very difficult to find both in US and Canada.
thank you amazing video and SUPER helpful i think im going to buy the sony brand battery but USED from adorama because its only $42 or so which doesnt seem so bad.
I'm always so skeptic about using aftermarket product when it comes to electrical components. I feel that with my luck, something is going to short out or caught on fire and the goes my camera.
One thing i noticed is how the skin tone is weird with Sony some yellow/green spots all over the face. I have an A7sII and does the same (mostly with slog). Quite annoying. When you record with your GH5s is sooooo much better.
The only thing i'm skeptical about is the fact that the only review on the DSTE x2 batteries on Amazon says that it corrupts your files if it runs out of juice in the middle of recording. That's very scary for wedding shooters lol

Hey Caleb, I'm trying to buy the battery grip, but your link directs me to Italian Amazon and I do not understand anything and somehow I can not change the language to anything I speak. Anyway I do want to support your channel, so if you update the link I would buy it from there.
I had 9 sony batteries for the older models. From the time of NEX 3 and 7, from the 5100, to the A7RII. The batteries from 2012 are still going strong end of 2019. 7 years. Same model Sony batteries, 6 died, all around 3 months apart, after only 3 years of use. Those 6 are the ones that I bought together when I got the A7RII. I didn't learn my lesson and went to buy another 4. It's 2019 now and they are like 1/4 the price locally. I guess I'll throw them away in 3 years time again. Man, Sony batteries are shit in that regard.
uzun vadede şarj adedine ve performans düşüşüne bakmak lazım. ilk zamanlarda tamam iyidi bir noktadan sonra şarj bile olmuyorlar yada 5 dakika da şarjları bitmeye başlıyor
I'd like to know how they hold up in a year or so. Follow up video in the future? As a general rule, the cheaper 3rd party batteries work great for the first while and drop off rapidly compared to originals which can last years. Now, they're so cheap it might be worth buying a new set each year or so over having a Sony which lasts a couple years so it might be worth finding out.
Phew! That was a lot of start/stop button pushing! When we gonna get unlimited recording Sony???
when sony removes the tax restriction.
videos are recorded divided in different files? theres any lost informations between those cuts?
There's a hack, it works perfectly.
can you elaborate?
OpenMemories does not work on the a7 III, a7R III or a9 as they do not have the apps.
Great to see numbers on fresh batteries. Come back after 100 or so discharge/charge cycles and report on the capacity. You examined only 1 small part of the overall cost.
Great job. Thanks for doing this.
No problem! Hope you are well friend.

Great roundup! Though, I'd be very interested to see a 6mo-1yr follow-up to see how these hold up after multiple uses.
By the way, good job on the infographics. Nice bit of polish and very useful!
When there was a drought in 3rd party batteries for the a7iii (except for the sold out and much too expensive wasabis) I went with a bunch of King-Mah batteries off of Ali Express. They took some time to get in, but I've been quite happy with their performance so far!
If you make a video like this but about the Panasonic batteries I will love you like there's no tomorrow
And the result will most likely be exactly the same :) DSTE batteries are the only non-originals I use now for my both Nikon and Fuji cameras at home, and also for a bunch of Panasonics (GH3/4/5/5s) at work. They have proved to be quite reliable over years - they don't loose the capacity fast and dont swell with time like many off-brand batteries do.
I've beening using Wasabi and Newmowa and its been pretty good. No file corruptions but they do last a little shorter than the original Panasonic.

Got 100 shot s on the first battery. Not where near a Sony. But I can use the two while I charge the original.

Agree DSTE are the best. I use them with my Canon.
I shall use these batteries for the Sony A74 and Sony A7siii

Hey Caleb, long time fan here. Awesome video, also highly appreciate the more humorous approach and funny touches, more of that will speed up your growth I think!
really love how you are developing your video style (music, intro, lighting) currently. great video and keep up the good work!
Great video ! Original will work fine after a year of use but cheaper options will not ! Get the original !
Third party batteries deteriorate much quicker than official ones. If you're a working professional batteries should be your least of concerns. So If you can drop 2K on a camera you can sneeze few more on original battery.
Not much quicker for me at least (definitely not four times quicker). Like he said, if you have the money go with the originals.
Chosen Idea I have used several 3rd party back in my Canon days and they never seem to retain their power. Wast of money and wast of time .
Useful test, saves us the work to buy lots of different batteries ourselves. Looking forward to that a7iii guide and battery grip test.
BRUH, when you said "It doesn't come with a charger"..... I ordered a damn OEM battery I thought the camera would at least come with a battery charger! I'm shoooktih.... WHy did I buy this camera in 2020

Such a great video! Helped me a ton. The dual usb charger you mentioned actually now comes with TWO of the Newmowa batteries for $89.99 CDN!
Can't wait for the camera guide! Once I get an a7iii I'll buy the guide!
Who the hell gave this a dislike?? Sony themselves?? 😂😂
Much appreciated Caleb! Love the use of Metal Gear enemy alert SFX, especially when you upped the pitch for the charger! (awesome touch, had me laughing). Keep up the wonderful work and information. Till next time!
So one big thing is missing here. something critical... this are all brand new batteries. How long they can keep this power. What happens after one month, or three months of daily usage and recharge? Also how reliable is the percentage information after that time? People forget that...
I appreciated the little circle graphics nice touch
This is cool, but the longevity and accuracy of battery left overtime is what I’m more concerned about. The DSTE might hold half the battery a few years down the road.
Would be great for last one list of all batteries in one screen for fast compare
Well done! I’ll be picking up a couple of these as backups! Big thanks
Nice Video! I have two powerextra batteries and a dual charger which all together cost me $33 and the batteries are very comparable power-wise
Waiting on that guide! I got the G85 guide and g7 now waiting on the A7iii
He is right dste. Best value i use them can't go wrong. They are a big accessory mfg not just anyone
Thanks great review. The dste here is 25 including a charger... As per the Meike battery grip i would be very careful i had it for two month and got various file errors, funky changes on camera shutter, random freeze. And if you look on blogs you'll find this problem well acknowledged with previous grips for other Sony cameras. Watch out.
revisiting this video, the wasabi power batts are now $55 for 2 w/ dual charger. Would you say Wasabi is back on top as far as FZ100 batteries?
thank... simply thank you for this video
The brand "rawpower" is also really good. Quite cheap and even more mAh than the original battery.
Awesome Review. Thank You Brother!

Yup your the man! I can always count on you to keep pumping original content and things that everyone wants to know.
Party on Wayne 🤘
the crazy thing is that the mAh ratings on the batteries don't seem to correlate to how long the battery will last...So thanks Caleb!
Just bought the DSTE now. let's see how they do, thanks for the video
Hi,Can you please let me know how is battery working on the Sony A7iii ?
Thanks,
@@8772884 Hey bro, So I got these a couple of weeks ago and they are working great. Not noticed any difference with respect to the original battery
@@LucasGuanes much appreciated bro 👍🍻

Perfect timing! I was about to look look for spare batteries! Thanks Caleb! I'll use your affiliate links!
Nice! More A7III content, please!
Definitely more on the way!
Fantastic, hoping to get your guide when it's out too!
Wow man, love the hard work you put into this!
Great review. Unfortunately, it looks like DSTE FZ100s are completely sold out at Amazon. Here's hoping they become available again.
Excellent video, very professional and clear, thanks a lot.
Super helpful, thanks!
This is a great help to narrow down my hunt. Thanks Caleb! :)
Never heard of DSTE. That's awesome.
Has something happened with DSTE overall? I can't even find any of their batteries listed on Amazon.
Hi, Caleb. I follow you since years and love your videos so much.

UGH I want this camera to come back in stock already!
Pretty awesome, thanks for testing these out, I didn’t have any other options when I got the camera, so I already own 4 of the original battery’s 😅
But will certainly look at the cheaper options when I buy my next one 👊🏻
The original,for 58 euros it's ok for me...thank you so much!
Awesome video. Loved the format
Great Video! You're the man. What lens are you using? I love the bokeh!
Those MGS references were awesome
Please do more DIY videos like back in the good ol' days
That DSTE brand in Chinese is '蒂森特', sounds more like the word 'decent'. A twin charger from that brand costs about 7 bucks.
@DSLRvideoshooter just a heads up. The affiliate link for the DTSE didnt work for me. thanks for doing this, I found it extremely useful and it provided a really good rational. Looking forward to learning more.
Hey Caleb, nice review roundup! Have you considered Powerextra batteries. The DSTE and Wasabi batteries seems to be very difficult to find both in US and Canada.
thank you amazing video and SUPER helpful i think im going to buy the sony brand battery but USED from adorama because its only $42 or so which doesnt seem so bad.
I recall that the third party charger charges via USB... so it takes way longer (6x longer?) to recharge in comparison to the official Sony charger.
I'm always so skeptic about using aftermarket product when it comes to electrical components. I feel that with my luck, something is going to short out or caught on fire and the goes my camera.
Do DSTE batteries show the remaining battery charge % on the latest firmware update, i know alot give unsafe battery warnings and dont display the %
One thing i noticed is how the skin tone is weird with Sony some yellow/green spots all over the face. I have an A7sII and does the same (mostly with slog). Quite annoying. When you record with your GH5s is sooooo much better.
The only thing i'm skeptical about is the fact that the only review on the DSTE x2 batteries on Amazon says that it corrupts your files if it runs out of juice in the middle of recording. That's very scary for wedding shooters lol
Hey Caleb, I'm trying to buy the battery grip, but your link directs me to Italian Amazon and I do not understand anything and somehow I can not change the language to anything I speak. Anyway I do want to support your channel, so if you update the link I would buy it from there.
You are the man for doing this!
Amazing video!!
Thanks for the review. What about battery getting worn out? can you talk about how good they after a long time of use?
great job Caleb!
This is informative and useful, DSLR Video Shooter. Thank you.
This is great! thanks dude :)
Some of your links doesn't work, one of them is the DSTE...
Great video!
Good stuff!!
I had 9 sony batteries for the older models.
From the time of NEX 3 and 7, from the 5100, to the A7RII.
The batteries from 2012 are still going strong end of 2019. 7 years.
Same model Sony batteries, 6 died, all around 3 months apart, after only 3 years of use. Those 6 are the ones that I bought together when I got the A7RII.
I didn't learn my lesson and went to buy another 4. It's 2019 now and they are like 1/4 the price locally. I guess I'll throw them away in 3 years time again.
Man, Sony batteries are shit in that regard.
thank you very muchhhh !!!!
THANKS!
Great information. Now that it’s 2020 , any new tests? I found Vemico battery kit that includes dual charger and 2 batteries for 49.99
uzun vadede şarj adedine ve performans düşüşüne bakmak lazım. ilk zamanlarda tamam iyidi bir noktadan sonra şarj bile olmuyorlar yada 5 dakika da şarjları bitmeye başlıyor
Waiting for RAVpower version, their fw50 version is closest to original, and I've tried almost all other brands.
I'd like to know how they hold up in a year or so. Follow up video in the future? As a general rule, the cheaper 3rd party batteries work great for the first while and drop off rapidly compared to originals which can last years.
Now, they're so cheap it might be worth buying a new set each year or so over having a Sony which lasts a couple years so it might be worth finding out.
I tried 3 brands, I have 4 DSTE batteries NP-FZ100 and only tested two, they both shutdown and corrupt my memory cards at the end.
Are there any drawbacks to using a third party battery? like screwing with the software of a shorcuit maybe?
I can't wait to show you the final sample of the powering device I showed you at NAB. We are ready to ship....
