Need to buy an extra battery...can you recommend a site?

[Kim&Chris]

I need a backup batter for my new Canon SD1200is. This is the first camera I've ever owned that did not take AA batteries.

Can you recommend a site where I can buy an authentic Canon battery at a reasonable cost? Thanks!

If you want to use just the Canon brand battery (I have never tried the 3rd party batteries), I think the best place to get a good price would be Amazon.com. Most things seem to be a bit cheaper there.

They seem to run around $32. Here is the link.

However, I see that the 3rd party battery is only $2.60. haha! May be worth picking one up to see if it works as well as the reviews say.
