Good Grief - Battery life !!
1

I can`t remember how long I got out of the batteries in the SX50 last time but my old (over 10 years old) G1X battery which I had charged ready to go in the SX50 when I got it is STILL going now and has taken 602 shots , its showing "Red" 1 bar and has been for some time, I seem to remember the G1X going for ages like this - lasted ages on full bars then dropped to 2 then quickly into the red where it lasted ages .

I`ll run it flat as it prob needs Calibration and then finally get to try the battery which came with the camera . even as it stands , 602 shots is DSLR territory, way more than most MILCs let alone battery chewers like the G5X Mk2

Anyway a link to my SX50 gallery for those intetrested in seeing the image quality in RAW in Capture One .. full size images (Click original) , mix of test shots and ones casually shot on walkabout
