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

Sean,
are we going to see some kind of set-up shot?
Sounds like you are doing something like that Indiana Jones thing in the temple with the bag full of sand ...

lol....no, nothing that interesting
I'm needing to update/verify camera weights for the listed values we have on this site. We pulled them from Canon originally. However, Canon switched from "Body Only" weights to publishing the CIPA standard weights (which include the battery and memory card). 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.
Alright, I was able to locate four batteries (two cameras and two spare batteries)
Results:
1.660 oz
1.660 oz
1.655 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
