Summary: DO NOT BUY OFF-BRAND BATTERIES!
Comment: I had a DigiPower battery, which is made in the same factory as some other off-brands. The new features by the "e" version of the EN-EL3 battery did not work with this battery, meaning I had no idea how much charge was left.
In my D80, the off-brand battery would occasionally not work at all. If it did, it would report a full charge regardless of the actual charge. In my D90, the battery reports a fully dead battery regardless of the actual charge. Because of this, the camera does not function- it won't take pictures if it detects a dead battery.
In short, off brand batteries do not work at all with the D90. They work most of the time, but without the battery indicator, on earlier cameras.
The Nikon battery has none of these problems. As others have said, its battery indicator is actually VERY accurate.

Comment: What can I say? It performs just as the one that came with the D80. Long life - bought it more as an emergency spare and to rotate so the batteries lasts longer. Legit Nikon product.

Summary: A very long lasting battery!
Comment: We have forgotten and left the camera on all night, we have flashed, flashed, and flashed some more. It has a lot of power and is well suited to the camera.

Summary: works great
Comment: I almost bought a 3rd party battery for twice as much at local electronics retailer... so glad I decided to check with amazon.com first.

Summary: RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
Comment: oNE CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH BATTERIES IF ONE IS AN ACTIVE SHOOTER. THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN RUNNING OUT OF "JUICE" IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME. tHEREFORE, ONE NEEDS TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE BATTERY READY TO GO IN ONES KIT AT ALL TIMES. THIS BATTERY IS SIMILAR TO THE ONE THAT COMES WITH THE LATEST NIKON DIGITAL SLR CAMERAS AND IS EASY TO CHARGE IN THE CHARGING UNIT WHICH COMES WITH THE CAMERA. ONE HAS TO MAKE SURE THAT ONE GETS THE PROPER UNIT INORDER TO INSURE COMPATABILITY WITH ONES CAMERA.
