Hi,

question to all photographers here, which are the more reputable shops that sells real genuine battery for Nikon DSLR?
Where do you buy your camera stuff from usually?

I dont want to end up getting a fake battery and spoiling my camera in return.

Thank you!

Can I ask also how to see if the battery I bought is brand new and not used before by another user huh?

See the battery metal contacts for markings, if a lot of markings means well used battery.

It should look clean.

Thanks Kyo_kusanagi86 for the advice.
I bought the battery, but the picture of it and the ones I found on the internet are different. It doesnt have the big white Li-ion22 symbol on the top right corner, and some symbols are different. Should I be concerned? :(
Anyone has this same battery can compare and tell me?

This is the one I bought
