Works just as well but costs less than the Nikon EN-EL1
(4 out of 5) by Michael Love on Jul 27, 2004 (Michigan, USA)I own a Nikon coolpix 5700, while putting it through its paces I found out quite early on that the battery power is an issue with the 5700. It wouldn't last a reasonable day worth of photographs on just one battery charge.
So I bought the Digicom rechargeable battery and I use it with my 5700 and I charge it in both my Nikon MH-53C Car Charger and in the Nikon charger that came with the camera.
When I'm using the camera I honestly couldn't tell you which battery I'm using at the time. The Digicom works just as well as my official Nikon EN-EL1 rechargeable battery but at a lower cost than the EN-EL1.

Get more than you pay for.
(5 out of 5) by gallavad on Jan 27, 2005 (Atlanta, USA)I was surprised to see that this battery (at least the one that shipped to me, made by Digicom) was rated at 900mAh, instead of the 650mAh figure listed above. The Nikon battery that came with my camera was rated at only 680mAh, so this should equate to something like a 30% increase in capacity over the already more expensive "official" Nikon battery.
OF course, I haven't tested this in anyway, so I could be completely wrong, but even if it only matches performance of the official nikon battery, its still a steal.

The best battery deal on the net
(4 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Apr 8, 2003 (Norwalk, Ct)I have had this battery for a few months and it has been great! The battery I have lasts longer than the original. I totally recommend Digicom products
