A purchase of €1,000, repayment period 12 months, nominal interest rate 17.5 % (15 % + reference rate 2.5 %) and an account management fee of €5 per month:
monthly instalment 96,44 €, the total cost of the loan 157,31 €, total amount payable 1 157,31 €, the actual annual interest rate 31,72 %.

Is the price a rip-off, or is it actually a good product?
That’s exactly what I asked for!
Having used them for half a year now, I have to say that the battery life really does last a long time. Although the battery capacity is said to be 100mAh less than Canon’s original battery, these batteries do actually last longer than the original ones that came with the camera. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
