To: Ms.Karen J, in reference to your question on type of batteries for the NEW Polariod One600 Classic Instant Camera - Model 642952. It Using Polariod 600 Instant Film, the unit doesn't take a certain type of batteries to the best of my knowledge! I purchase this model on 02/26/14 and have not put or use any type of batteries into it! I understand the batteries features are built into the film itself. This be the same for the (Older) Polariod One Instant Cameria - ONE Model, the same Manufacturer's # - 642952, but has added feature of an SELF-TIMER. It uses Platinum 600 film (SKU # 93029,93162 & 9022443). I hope this answer your question at hand.

I don't know. Just run a search on your camera and it'll say what battery it takes.

The one I purchased did; however since each of these camera kits are sold by different vendors I recommend that you look at each package carefully. Side note the battery isn't difficult to find it's a standard 6v battery http://www.batteryjunction.com/duracell-28l.html?gclid=CIW1uLmkhr0CFeZDMgodq38ASA

It takes AA batteries but if you download photo's often it definitely uses up your batteries but it is an easy fix since you can get AA batteries pretty inexpensive at Walmart. Not so good at taking pics of fast moving objects unless you use the video recorder on it. I find that works great with sound too. I love this camera!! Hope that helps ...

Yes this camera takes regular AA batteries. However, this is a 'high drain device' which means that even the best batteries won't last long. I highly recommend a set of rechargeable AA batteries, such as 3100 capacity (find it on Amazon because the ones in stores are generally 1500 capacity). They recharge quickly and last longer on this device.

It uses two lithium camera batteries that can be found at any major retailer such as Wal-Mart. They are short mid-sized batteries.

Yes. It will take regular aa or rechargeable. Depending on how many pictures you are going to take, it's worth the small investment for the rechargeable batteries.

No. It uses two standard AA batteries. One could substitute rechargeable double AA 's , but there is no re charger in the camera itself.

The camera uses two inexpensive, readily available AA batteries. Also, the extra weight of the batteries make it a little easier to steady the camera when taking pictures.

No, it does not operate on batteries. You can use power over ethernet (POA) to power the camera.

It uses a rechargeable lithium ion battery pack (en-el19). It is specific to this model, maybe others but not my old coolpix. It's similar in shape to my old nikon coolpix battery but slightly smaller. I was sad I couldn't use the same batteries from my old coolpix because they are still good lol. Oh well.

It does and the battery lasts a LONG time. Took it to Africa for 2 weeks and never needed to replace the battery. We bought an extra battery and it is nice to have a back in general. Highly recommend this camera. Used to shoot on Cannon, but grew out of the cameras quickly. So much to learn with this one, easy enough to use immediately.

It uses AA batteries. I have used both regular AA batteries and the rechargeable AA batteries. The rechargeable AA work very well with this camera. However, it is a good idea to either pull the batteries or flip one around the wrong way when not in use or I have found it will run the battery down just sitting there. Hope this helps!

Hello, the camera comes with two AA regular batteries that we use for many electronic devices. You may purchases rechargeable batteries though. NOTE that the camera does NOT come with that Lithium square battery that other Canon cameras use :(

It takes a Sony NP-FV50 battery. Here's a link to it: Sony NP-FV50 Rechargeable Battery Pack (Retail Packaging) I also mention it and link to it in my review of the camera. I bought three of these batteries and just cycle through them with no problems so far. I don't know if you can also use higher-capacity batteries, but I suspect you can.Hope this helps.Terry Sunday

It only uses AA batteries, and it burns through them rather quickly. The camera often died at the worst times.

Cynthia our cameras do come with batteries. We may have an original or after market battery depending on the listing.
