TeamSpeed 01010100 01010011 ![]() More info | If you have gold contacts in the LP-E6, it is probably more certain it is a factory OE. If you see silver contacts in the contact area, it most likely is an aftermarket. A couple look like they could be OE, and one looks like it might be a fake, but hard to tell with those pics.

Sep 29, 2014 12:12 | #10 my fake happened to have a different finish, slightly glossier. Another indicator was the thicker plastic rail Sony A7siii/A7iii/ZV-1 - FE 24/1.4 - SY 24/2.8 - FE 35/2.8 - FE 50/1.8 - FE 85/1.8 - F 600/5.6 - CZ 100-300 - Tamron 17-28/2.8 - 28-75/2.8 - 28-200 RXD

One way to be "almost sure" they are not fake is to buy them from Canon. 7D, 10D, Canon EFS 18-55mm modded

And both have the Chinese symbols (words) just a bit below this code. Only your bottom battery contains these items. Both have a matt finish above with a smooth gloss finish on the lower portions. Both are clearly stamped with 2014 02 on the silver portion in about the same font size as your last battery. In the Canon example, neither the real or the fake have the coding... so go figure. Gerry

mwsilver Goldmember More info | Sep 29, 2014 22:18 | #14 SkipD wrote in post #17183869 ![]() My original Canon LP-E6 batteries have different cautionary notes at the bottom (below the blue in the sticker). I've got two with different caution notices, both from B&H. In every other respect they are identical to each other and to the OP's examples except for the third one. My copies don't have the 2INR19/50 on the upper right. However, the Lp-E6 is a popular battery used by several Canon bodies over a number of years. Why should we assume the markings and text hasn't changed a bit over time? The bottom two seem to have gold contacts in the two lower slots, I can't be sure about the top image. There is nothing in the overall mold of the plastic that looks obviously out of whack. I've seen counterfeits that have subtle but easily identifiable mold differences. Mark

One came in a new 5D3, from Wex, one came in a new 7D from Jessops, and one was a spare brought from Wex. Both are top trusted major Canon dealers - so I am positive That they would NOT sell fake cameras, and fake batteries. Course it could be just your images, but they look more of a Matt plastic to me. And its the little things like that , which give away a fake eg the top is not super shiny - so the fake mfg, just goes with the one type of plastic finish. Why did you ask - were they quite cheap? Or from a questionable source? NB mine were bought in 2011 and 2012 and 2013. All look identical. If that helps. Of course Canon could ? Have changed the design in 2014, or have different designs for different Countries ?? I just took some shots of mine, which are also shiny plastic and the resulting images had a more matte look like the Op's. I think its just the lighting. Mark
