Hey,

I'm a new camcorder owner and want to purchase an additional (higher capacity) battery to use with my Panasonic PV-GS320.

I'm finding clone batteries available (not Panasonic) available on Amazon.com like this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Hi-Capacity-Equivalent-PANASONIC-CGA-DU12-CGA-DU14A/dp/B0009WVAIK

Are these just as good to use as the Panasonic ones? They are certainly less expensive.

Thanks for your comments!
