Customer Review: The Genuine Article, Thick As A Brick
Summary: 5 Stars
A word of warning:
** You must use a genuine Sony brand InfoLithium battery with any Sony camcorder **
If you've shopped around, you may have run across some off-brand FP-90's that are a fraction of the price of the Sony brand - that's because they're Chinese-made knock-offs that are kind-of sort-of InfoLithium compatible, and they only work as they should perhaps 50% of the time. Reviews of these batteries report them working fine one minute and not at all the next, sometimes working fine for days and then stopping, sometimes requiring the camera being turned on and off several times, etc. Skip the hassle and buy this actual Sony product, I paid only $72 from an Amazon Marketplace Seller.
The FP90 is certainly large on a modern camcorder battery scale, though 1 3/4" deep doesn't sound like much, it does make my DCR-HC36 resemble a sub-compact car hauling a couch. No one will mistake this for being a slight battery. I personally find the extra mass helps balance and steady the camcorder.
Manufacturer claims of battery life are usually overblown, but I'm still pleasantly surprised at the 4+ hours I can get from this battery. This is hours longer than any stock/included battery, and more than adequate for recording an entire one-hour MiniDV tape. High-capacity batteries are best charged overnight, so I'm not sure what the charge time is, only that it's ready to go in the morning.
Overall, the FP90 is big in every way, and worth the price of admission. Five stars for Sony's marathon battery.
