Why batteries is something you want to buy original (even at exuberant pricing)

Udi Tirosh

One thing that really irritates me is the price that camera makers put on their batteries. I mean an original battery for a sony A7II costs about $53, the same battery from a third party costs about $13, that’s quite a difference isn’t it? For the price of one original battery, you can get four […]
