I recently bought a used but mint 5DS. It came with a generic LP-E6 2500mAh battery which lasts no time at all, but maybe the battery is shot. However for a short time it does at least work.
I've got two other generic LP-E6 batteries and the camera doesn't recognise either of them, all I get is the flashing 'no battery' alert on the top LCD. One of these two batteries is 1400mAh, the other is 1600mAh. Both of them worked fine in a 5D3, quite recently.
I've had a trawl of the 'net and as far as I can tell the 5DS (and SR) should work on the same batteries as the 5D3.
Am I missing something?
Many thanks for any info.
