Warning: Wasabi Sony NP-FZ100 “clone” is NOT working!
The world’s first third-party NP-FZ100 clone is now in Stock for the first time at Amazon US. But we are getting reports from many readers saying the battery is NOT working. Since than Blue Nook removed the preorder option.
David Busch reports on Amazon:
Purchased one of these to test and review in my Sony books. When inserted in camera I receive “Incompatible Battery. Use Correct Model.” message. It appears when using my a7 III, a7R III, and a9. I assume not all examples do this and it may be a quality control issue. I emailed Blue Nook on the day I received the battery.
UPDATE: I’ve heard from Blue Nook. They report that there was a problem with the first batch from the factory and will receive a fixed version soon. I am returning the defective battery to them.
