Which charger and battery for HDR CX100?

Post by flyguy44 »

I am so confused with the varying Amazon reviews on compatible chargers and larger capacity batteries for this camcorder. I bought it used several years ago and would rather not go with the high-priced Sony brand if I don't have to. So, I'm relying on the true experts (on this forum) before I buy. :)

Don't take chances, get an original Sony battery and charger.

Heard the recent news about cell phones exploding in mid-air? They seemed to be having non-original battery replacements. I'm not saying you would have such issues (and not saying you wouldn't), but... "Buy Cheap, Buy Twice" (copyrighted motto by Doughie ;-)

I agree. Whenever I buy a new camcorder, I always buy two of the biggest batt Sony makes for it and an extra charger. Cheap insurance in the long run. I never buy aftermarket knockoffs for any reason. It's never a bargain if it doesn't work, no matter how cheap it is.
