New E-M5 cheap batteries auctions (with charger included)

[shoplink 30785 ebay][/shoplink]

The Hong Kong located store “dstebattery” reacted quickly and is now offering new (non original) E-M5 batteries with battery charger included! Here are the auctions:
– Three E-M5 batteries with charger for $39,99 ([shoplink 30785 ebay]Click here to see the auction[/shoplink]).
– Two E-M5 batteries with charger for $30,99 ([shoplink 30786 ebay]Click here to see the auction[/shoplink]).
– One E-M5 battery with charger for $18,99 ([shoplink 30787 ebay]Click here to see the auction[/shoplink]).
– A single E-M5 battery without(!) charger for $12,99 ([shoplink 30788 ebay]Click here to see the auction[/shoplink]).

I think this is a great deal if you consider that the original Olympus BLN-1 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery (1220mAh) costs $59 (here at Bhphoto). As usual be aware of the risk to buy from oversea stores! I will take the risk but don’t blame me if there are some problems after :)

Third party battery works with E-M5 but can’t charge on normal Olympus charger.

[shoplink 30722 ebay][/shoplink] As you know yesterday there was that amazing (and suspicious) deal selling three E-M5 third party batteries for $11,3 each! The deal was available on [shoplink 30705 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. Today the store “dstebattery” sent out that info: “Very sorry sir,before we sent the battery to you,our colleagues in the inspection department find that this battery can’t charged by your original charger,but can put the battery into your camera charged by AC adapter,or use our Brand charger.The battery work well in camera,can show battery level. In order to solve the problem, we can give you a $8.99 charger for free ([shoplink 30722 ebay]battery is on eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]).”

It’s really disturbing to learn about that kind of limitation AFTER having purchased the battery. As soon as some of you got the batteries let us know if it really works fine. Would be useful for 43rumors readers to learn if we can trust these third party battery resellers or not! Thanks!

E-M5 ships in 1-2 months in USA :(

I bet that one minute after posting this the camera will be sold :) Click here to grab the E-M5 body only at Amazon! UPDATE: Indeed the camera has been sold out and there is only an overpriced body available via third party resellers!

Meantime a bad news is that Amazon (Click here) reports that the E-M5 with 14-42mm kit lens will ship within 1-2 months only :(
