Does anyone know which model of batteries these take, or are they new and exclusive to the AF100?

The AF100 uses the same batteries that are used for the HMC150, HMC40, HMC70, and HMC80 cameras.

Here is a link to Panasonic's highest capacity battery that will work with the AF100:

It pains me to say this, but apparently things are a little more complicated.

I just got mine today and the VBG6 seems to work fine.

Sorry, didn't read the thread about the 5400 / 5800 dilemma. I'll try to test to see which lasts longer, the included 5800 or the VBG6.
