coldman said::embrass: for mine, around 1 hour charging, didn't count how many pic it can take, but roughtly as long as the original battery, maybe more.
one thing to note, you can still take many picture with the 3rd party battery even if the battery bar show empty.
go to the lvl 2 shop, more friendlyer.
Hmm....your 1200mah battery might not be 1200mah after all. :think:
I always thought a larger capacity battery should take longer to charge.
