Canon EOS Battery duration

The highly efficient components of any EOS keep battery consumption to a minimum, allowing you to make more shots per single charge. The CMOS image sensor, for example, requires much less power than CCD sensors. Integrating all the key processes of the camera on a single chip, the DIGIC technology operates with greater efficiency than conventional image sensors.

The table below shows the approximate performance of the batteries of the current EOS models. Disable the viewing of images immediately after shooting is possible to obtain a significant increase in the number of shots per charge.

Model	Shots per charge
EOS-1Ds Mark III	1800 (a 23°C) – 1400 (a 0°C)
EOS-1D Mark III	2200 (a 23°C) – 1700 (a 0°C)
EOS 5D Mark II	850 (a 20°C) – 750 (a 0°C)
EOS 5D	800 (a 20°C) – 400 (a 0°C)
EOS 50D	640 (a 23°C) – 540 (a 0°C)
EOS 40D	800 (a 23°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)
	700 (a 0°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)
EOS Rebel XSi/450D	500 (a 23°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)-
	400 (a 0°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)
EOS Rebel XTi/400D	360 (a 23°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)-
	280 (a 0°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)
EOS Rebel XS/1000D	500 (a 23°C, AE 50%, FE 50%)-
