<< Is the Buy.com NB-1L battery made by Canon, that would be great for $36 + shipping, also I assume these are 680 mAmp batteries, whish they had extended life ones at like 1000 mAmp , any one know of any? >>
I recently bought two of them for a friend of mine out of county, and as far as i could see on the box yes, they were original Canon batteries...
Here is the link. Althoug it doesn't say much there...
