is it a good idea to buy a used battery for my Canon 60D?

It is NOT a good idea to buy a used battery. Spend the extra money and buy a NEW battery and ALWAYS buy a CANON BRAND if you buy it online otherwise buy from a place like Batteries Plus where you can get it warrantied if it doesn't work. Here is the "I TOLD YOU SO": If you buy a used or off brand battery online - your chances of wasting your money completely are VERY HIGH. Also - don't be a cheap skate.

New isn't very expensive. Why buy something that already has a history that you're unaware of??

They work great for me, no problems at all. Although I'm using a d3200, your cameras calls for the same battery. If you have any reservations send the seller an E-mail, as long as you're buying from somewhat of a camera accessory vendor. They would know from any backlash from other buyers.

Yes, I have had my camera using this battery for I think 5-7yrs and my original batteries were not holding their charge, so before I bought a new camera I decided to see if the batteries were the problem ,so I bought 2 new ones (I always have a spare) and charged them up and I think that was the problem, so I guess my point is that, the batteries last 5-7yrs, not a bad investment

Certainly! Just like any other camera you can buy extra batteries and an external charger so you always have a fresh battery available.

I have gotten a lot. Depends on how much video I take, how much zoom I use and how much reviewing of photos I do. This is just like the Canon battery that came with the camera so works just as well. I have found in the past that other batteries (not made by the camera manufacturer) are just a waste of money.

I have the 603 which will last a while on a set of batteries. If you use it a lot I recommend that you use rechargeable and charge them before each use.Otherwise use a battery checker before each use and always take an extra set of batteries.

You can buy the battery online. Just google AE-1 Battery. It comes with the 50mm lens.

Yes it works great I have been using one for over 4 years and it still is in my camera now great buy but the shipping cost is way out of line. To pay more for shipping than the battery is crazy. How dumb is that. Joe miller

I replaced my original Canon battery, the one that came with my Canon Rebel XT, after 4 years, during which I took a lot of pictures. If you are having to re-charge the battery more often, and the charge is not lasting as long, it might be time for a replacement. I would recommend staying with the Canon brand batteries. There are cheaper alternatives, but I'm not sure if they are as reliable.

I have a 40D that I use all the time. I did buy a 60D but I find myself still using the 40D for most of my photos. Unless the 40D is broken I'd keep using it. Of course if like me, you just want a new toy, there are a lot of 60D's on the market. I don't us my cameras for video so I can't speak to their abilities. Hope this helps.

i alternate between two batteries. Assuming your lens cap is off when you take a photo, so I dont think you have anything to lose to get another battery. Just my opinion, of course.

I don't think it's any more illegal than any other non-Canon accessory produced for their cameras (think lenses and batteries, for instance). As long as they don't try to palm it off as a Canon product (which they don't), I think they're on safe legal ground. This is my second aftermarket battery grip (preceded by one for my 60D with a different name but probably from the same Chinese source), and both have worked well for less than a quarter of what Canon charges. Their build and material quality aren't quite as good as the Canon grip I have on my 7D, but both have held up well in heavy use (without the battery issues mentioned by another reviewer, though I've occasionally had to remove and reinsert a battery to get the camera to recognize its presence).

I received one Canon and one generic battery that works fine. This particular lithium battery for this camera is easy to get and very inexpensive. Both batteries last forever with this camera. I think you'll be pleased with the results obtained with the 6D. Know anyone who wants a slightly-used 20D?

I bought this for a canon 7d and it works great. I do not know about the 60d, sorry.

I charge it using the charger that came with my 60D. It has worked just fine for me.
