Works great with the Lumix ZS3 and the price was the best I could find out there for this battery. The generic batteries won't work, this battery works just fine. We use it as our back up to the original one we got with the camera.

Be aware that not all DMW-BCG10 batteries advertised on the net will actually work in the Lumix DMZ-ZS3 camera. This one being made by Panasonic does work without fail. I used the battery I purchased on a recent cruise (just returned Saturday) and took approximately 240 photographs with and without the flash. The battery is still in the camera with remaining available power.

[...], good price and works well with product intended for.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix ID Secured Battery:

This product appears to be identical to the Panasonic battery that came with my camera. I was unable to find this battery locally and it took a bit of searching to find it online. It seems Panasonic prevents third-party manufacturer parts from working in some cameras, so that would be my only complaint (might be a bit pricey compared to other camera batteries).

Service and delivery were excellent.

Was irritated that Panasonic is forcing you to buy their brand battery for the new cameras, but this was a very reasonable price, and the battery is holding it's charge much longer than I expected, based on reviews read.

The DMC-ZS3 requires that one MUST use ONLY a panasonic brand battery.No other brands will work in this camera. How greedy can Panasonic get??!!!At often more than [$]each this is really greedy. Shame on Panasonic.Perhaps shame on me for buying the camera!!!If you download a different firmware version for the camera, other brands of batteries can be used. Why should one have to do this anyway?Total greed plain and simple. Oh yeah, wait til you want to use an AC adapter instead rely on battery power. Surprise!!! NOT !!! You have to use a Panasonic brand set of cables at around[$]+ !!!
