Hi all,
So I have a shoot coming up Sunday which will require a couple of batteries--all day shoot.
I have a canon 5D w/ a canon battery a bP511A.
I have an off brand charger which works beautifully w/ it. A Pearstone adaptor that "fits CAN BP511/512 and BP522/535".
I went and got a new battery from Adorama a couple of days ago, showed them my charger, told them it was off brand, and they gave me an off brand battery for it (i didn't mind, saves a few bucks)--but it won't fit!!!!
I tried charging it last night.

I can't get to Adorama or B&H before they close today and they are closed tomorrow--Willoughbys charges a fortune (but may have to go that route). I have access to a rebel series camera, the latest one--do those batteries also fit the canon 5D?
