Does anyone here have a Rebel XS, XSi, or T1i (1000D, 450D, or 500D) and an accurate, small scale?
I need to know the weight of the battery, the LP-E5. If someone could let me know what that is, I'd appreciate it. :-)

T3i ok?
Edit: It is a different battery, so I guess not
Unfortunately, no, the T3i uses an LP-E8 battery. I need the weight of the LP-E5 instead. They're probably pretty close, though.Quote:

I think we still have an XS around the office somewhere. I'll can check in the morning.Quote:

So right now, we don't have an apples-to-apples comparison for some of the camera bodies (as some weights shown include the battery and memory card, while others do not).
We've decided to publish weights based on the CIPA standards (with battery and memory card). I've managed to verify or recalculate all of the other cameras we have weights for except for the cameras that have the LP-E5 battery. I need the battery's weight so that I can add it to the body + memory card weight to find arrive at the correct standard weight.
Amazon has it listed at 1.6 oz as the item weight in their advertsQuote:

Alright, I was able to locate four batteries (two cameras and two spare batteries)
Results:
1.660 oz
1.660 oz

1.660 oz
I also went ahead and measured a couple SD cards
Lexar Professional 16GB 400x
0.065oz
SanDisk Ultra 4 GB Class 4
0.060oz
I also measured the Xs camera strap for the two cameras
1.885 oz
1.865 oz
Thank you very much. I really appreciate your help!Quote:
