i see in the pic the battery shown is labeled "Canon" but still need to ask...are both batteries official canon brand, or is one or both a knock off?

I received one Canon and one generic battery that works fine. This particular lithium battery for this camera is easy to get and very inexpensive. Both batteries last forever with this camera. I think you'll be pleased with the results obtained with the 6D. Know anyone who wants a slightly-used 20D?

Same...just one is official. The other one seems to work well, it just doesn't register in the charger when it's finished charging

Yes, it is a genuine Canon battery. It shows the same battery on the Canon website.

It is a rechargeable battery for use in some Canon cameras. It is not made by Canon and is not sold by them. The ones I received were as good if not better than the Canon one I had before.

There is a second battery in this kit, that battery and the grip are not made by Canon. The battery says "Power2000" brand made "for Canon". The grip is "X-it Photo" brand. I have not used the grip yet but the second battery works well.

The package says the battery is made for Canon but it is not made by Canon. It is a substitute.

I can't help you with the question on that model but I can say both the battery and charger work as advertised and the charger has no problem charging my OEM Canon battery. Well worth the money spent.

Order from Amazon, not a 3rd party seller; there are a lot of Fakes out there. I just got this battery from Robert Rappley as a New/Refurbished one for a good price, not Amazon, and it's clearly a fake. Rounded on top where it should be flat making it hard to insert, Logo Font is different, weighs 52g vs. 78g for a genuine Canon. Labels on reverse are faded and lettering is unclear. What is clear is that I received a Fake battery. I've contacted seller for full refund.

P.D., the battery I bought here at Amazon has the Canon logo on it and it works in my G12. BTW when I first bought the camera and a battery at the B&H; photo store the salesman recommended the Pearstone brand battery for my camera just because it was less expensive at their store. My experience is that both these brands of batteries are equally good. DH

All of the packaging, hologram, etc appeared genuine and the battery has performed as a new Canon battery should, i.e. takes a ton of pictures before needing a recharge. i have no reason to suspect it is not genuine Canon.

The battery sold by Amazon.com is genuine, same good quality as the original one with the camera body. Not sure about the other ones sold by other vendors though...

YES. The battery I received looks just like the photo, with the Canon trademark name on it.

Yes, the cartridge is genuine Canon brand. I examine the cartridge with the ones I bought from the store.

I had the same concern, this is genuine and working fine, no issues. I cannot tell the difference between this and the one that came with the camera.

Mine says "canon" right on the cord, the listing says it is made by canon, the part number I believe is a Canon part number. Can I prove that it is or isn't a canon knock off, No. It works fine with my Canon cameras (I have three) and have no issues with it. No issues. So the only thing that would cause me to doubt, it the low price I paid. So, I believe it to be an Authentic Canon USB cable, though I can not prove it.

Ditto - this is a counterfeit battery. I compared the holograms and they are different and the label looks like it was applied by hand.

Be careful to buy the one that is not just "fulfilled" by amazon but also sold by amazon. This will always come in original authentic packaging versus the third party sellers who sell on amazon and move a lot of suspicious looking cartridges (eg packed into plastic bags, missing canon packaging, etc...).

It is NOT a good idea to buy a used battery. Spend the extra money and buy a NEW battery and ALWAYS buy a CANON BRAND if you buy it online otherwise buy from a place like Batteries Plus where you can get it warrantied if it doesn't work. Here is the "I TOLD YOU SO": If you buy a used or off brand battery online - your chances of wasting your money completely are VERY HIGH. Also - don't be a cheap skate.
