The pack measures 52.05 x 36.17 x 18.28 mm and weighs 43 g, matching the factory dimensions so it slides into the existing battery compartment without modification. No extra chargers or adapters are required; the battery works with the camera's own charging system.

Protected lithium-ion cell

Built-in circuitry guards against overcharge, over-discharge, over-voltage and short circuits. The manufacturer rates the cell for safe storage up to 60 °C (140 °F) and certifies it to ISO 9001, RoHS and CE standards.
