I have the original DSC-H20, and we gave the DSC-H20/B to my father-in-law for Christmas. His looks and is almost exactly the same as mine, but it has a few more options in the manual and program modes. Specifically I recall that he had more shutter speeds and focus distances to choose from.Edit: Sorry, I was mislead! My camera was missing some ISO speeds, etc. in the menus for some reason (stopped at 800 instead of 3200). But they just appeared. Must have been a firmware glitch!? :(

Sony informed me within days after registering my new DSC-H20/B they are the same camera and B is for the color Black. It is a good question because you never can tell with thousands if not hundreds of Brand Name Models.

Hi, I had the same question, so I have contacted sony.com and according to them except for panel color both are same.

They are the same camera. B is for black. Some places just list it one way or the other.*Edit*- Looks like the answer has been covered.

This battery works great in my DSC-HX9V/B and in looking around a bit...the sony H-90 is a different model than the one I have...so I cant say for sure it would

I also had an FH20 - it broke - error message with lens not opening and price to fix vs new one was silly so just bought new one, SZ7. The battery for the SZ7 is thinner, so the old FH20 one will not fit in the camera. However, the other dimensions are the same, so I popped the SZ7 battery into the wall charger from my FH20, the green light went on and it charged. Now I am not a technical person or battery expert so I have no idea if this is in any way harming the battery, but it does fit in the charger, green light goes on and it charges.

The difference is the model number. If you have an old battery, check the model number on the bottom of the battery.

Well, I'm now reading about another option: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H20/B 10.1 MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Zoom and Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization.This one compares to the Panasonic ZS3 and both sell for approximately the same price. I guess I'm still stuck in wanting to figure out which one of these models (DSC-H20, ZS3, DSC-W350, W370) can do all of the things they promised but at a faster speed.

I also use SONY NI-MH batteries and I haven't experienced any problems. I think what they meant to emphasize was to use NiMH type of rechargeable batteries. Here is what Olympus recommends: Ni-MH Quick Charger and Battery Set (B-90SU) http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/product.asp?product=1393&fl=5 "What is the difference between Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) and Nickel Metal Hydride (NIMH) batteries? Both NiCad and NiMH batteries are rechargeable. The main difference between the two is the fact that NIMH batteries offer higher energy densities than NiCads. In other words, pound for pound, NIMH delivers approximately 30% more capacity than its NiCad counterpart. " Reference: http://www.batterymart.com/c-battery-facts-faqs.html#lith-alk

Imaging Resource camera website says your DSC-H20 camera has these dimensions: 4.2 x 2.7 x 1.9 in. (107 x 69 x 47 mm) , My camera which "just fits" [Sony HX30V] is smaller at 4.2 x 2.4 x 1.4 in. (107 x 62 x 35 mm). SUMMARY: Your DSC-H20 is higher and thicker than my camera. My advice: NO, Not a good idea.

I don't know what the difference is, but I bought the Panasonic K-KJ17MCA4BAs, took them on vacation, shot for 10 days with my point-and-shoot and never even touched the second pair. With normal cells (Duracell) I'd be changing them on day 3!

Well, thanks for trying. I hope they reply! I noticed they merged those two models with their description as well which makes it hard to figure out the differences. If you dont get a response I'll definitely try to call and find out.

The only thing I can say about the difference would be the manufacturer. Both the original battery and this Wasabi battery seem to preform about the same as far as my experience goes. The included charger works in the car or in a household outlet with either the with my original GoPro battery or Wasabi batteries. I have been using these batteries for the last 5 months in my Hero 3 Black Edition and have not had a problem. I hope this helps!

I have 2 batteries for my FireStorm saw. This one that says FSX-Extreme and the other looks like it's a HPNB24. With slight modification to the tabs on the top of batteries--believe I just chopped off one tab on the HPNB24-- they can interchange. HOWEVER, this battery-life sucks. The HPNB24 lasts about 3x longer than this one. When you pick 'em up, about 2x heavier for the HPNB24 than this one. I will not get another one of these, I'll stay with the HPNB24.

The extras I ordered were specifically labeled Sony and this looks like that same one. I did order one used that had a "buy one get one free". One was a Sony battery the other was a no-name which I threw away (not sure if any of this helps).

you probably have 'clone' battery & not an actual Sony battery--the clone batteries will work OK in the older cameras like the H50 or W150, but NOT in the 'HX" series like the HX5V or HX100V--this message pops up in the newer cameras taking this battery because their power requirements are much higher if it is a cheap 'clone'--you can even take a battery that has gone dead from an "HX" series camera and put it in an "H" series camera and still shoot several frames--this is why I mentioned in my review about being a real Sony battery--I am sure that what you have is a counterfeit battery

I am receptive to answering questions, but what is the DSC-W210? I have purchased 3 batteries the past 3 years. They work but are slightly less powerful than original Sony. Good backup !!!

I just realized there is a difference between the G2 and the DMC-GH2K. I've had the DMC-GH2 on order since November.

Sorry, but I do not have a Sony DSC-H10. My Sony DSC-N1. Battery pack power for NP-FG1/BG1 Li-on Battery 3,7 V 1600mAh normally works.
