Summary: A must have
Comment: This is a must have for digital cameras. I missed some gorgeous sunset photos once because my battery died just as the colors were at their best. Never again. I always bring a spare battery now. It's a no-brainer.

Summary: good life...good to have a spare
Comment: I got this because I heard the d300 burns through them. To date, I have not noticed that, although I'm not a pro doing full events. Regardless, it's worth it to have a spare.

Summary: Better than the knock-off's
Comment: Splurge on getting the official Nikon battery. My sister bought an EN-EL3e imitation which seemed to be a bargain choice at first, but several charges later her's seems depleted, while my battery is as good as new.

Summary: Nikon EN EL3e
Comment: Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery was purchased as a back up for my new D300 .I have noted that the original battery will not last 3000 shots as indicated by Nikon.Usually i will notice the bars getting lesser after about 300 shots but will still let me get about 500 shots .
This was never a problem with D70 and the battery that came along with it.I used the camera for three years and never felt the need for an extra battery.
