Honestly though I find the cheapest but also the best way is to just buy a whole bunch of these Wasabi batteries. I did a whole video about the different ways to power this camera for long periods of time, so check that out for more in-depth info. There are a lot of different solutions for that, some that require expensive V-Mount batteries and other similar power sources. Other ways that you can power this camera for longer is to use bigger external batteries. They even show you properly the percentage of the battery left which many of the other cheap substitutes don’t do. They cost only $10 and perform equally great just like the original Canon batteries. But there are cheap alternatives like these Wasabi batteries.

Of course buying the original canon batteries is expensive since 1 battery costs $60. The best solution I found to this is to just buy more batteries. This camera uses the Canon LP-E6 Battery which only powers this camera for around 40 minutes.
