Since you have to charge the battery while it is in the camera, then you must not be able to take pictures all day? Right or wrong?

The camera stays charged all day for us but we haven't taken than about 40 in a day.

I have not had to charge the battery yet, but you must be correct. I probably will charge it while I'm sleeping.

I plug the camera in before the occasion. Sometimes an hour or two, sometimes overnight. The battery has held out just fine each time I have used it if it is charged, but I've yet to use it for an all day event so I can't say how long it lasts. It certainly doesn't deplete quickly if that's a concern. I have not timed the charging process, but a couple of hours is sufficient to return to full capacity from near zero.

Well, I returned the camera the same day when I realized the wi-fi does not work, so I can't say how long the charge would have worked. I have other Nikons, and do purchase extra batteries, as well as the AC charger that allows you to place the battery on the charger outside of the camera.

Yes you can. ecsactly you should charge all time while recording, If you disconect charger the battery lasts maximum 3-5 hours

On my outings I can usually capture all the photos I need with one charge (i.e. trip to the zoo, trip to the park) and still plenty of juice afterwards. I bought a 3rd party battery for $9 on amazon and it works great as a spare in case I want to shoot all day.

No, cause all the ink is contained in the special paper you buy to take the pics (and that explains why the paper is expensive). So yah, the camera only needs battery, thats is all.

I would say that the battery life would last you a full day is used immensely, or two-three days with less use. I have used it for over 4-5 days by taking pictures and simply turning the camera on and off as needed because of the quick startup. If you stayed somewhere for a week and needed pictures (and it was charged already) I would say to charge it once more while there to be safe.

I've never done it that way. I have a couple of chargers and I always remove the battery, charge it, and put it back into the camera. I have several batteries and a couple different Lumix bodies. I don't even know how to charge the battery inside the camera!

No, unless you will be using it constantly. I am a "planner" so I always have an extra battery and charger- but I have only charged my battery once since buying the camera a couple months ago. ( I usually take a few pictures every couple of days) Hope that helps you.

yes, battery must be in and have at least a charge enough to power on in order to do anything with the camera (including upload pictures to your computer.) I bought an extra off brand battery works great, and its nice to have two.

Yes, the camera functions normally while plugged in. I'm pretty sure it actually charges the battery even while recording.

Yes, flash usage and videos use up a lot of battery power in the camera. However pictures are usually still possible when it says that you need batteries.

No, now a full charged battery is not enough for recording even 15' of HD video. Though it is still ok for taking pictures.

The battery life has been good for me. I bought the camera right before vacation and took many pictures over the course of a week. I believe I recharged the battery daily but the battery never died. I just wanted a full battery for each day since I was taking so many pictures. However, I've only used the camera sporadically since so I'm not sure how the battery life would be now if I was using it as much as I was when I first bought it.

I got about 15 minutes out of each full charge. So, it's best to keep the camera plugged in at all times. The camera still shoots color at night and automatically adjusts to day/night.

As I'm not sure what kind of camera you are referring to, all I can tell you is that if your camera can be recharged through a micro or mini USB cable, there should be no problem at all. Meaning that you have a standard USB connector at one end and a micro or mini USB connector at the other end. Check your users manual to see if charging can be done this way if you are unsure right now.

I don't know the correct protocol but I charge the battery after every use of the camera, regardless of the number of shots taken. Have had no problem doing it that way.

You may charge it's battery from an external power bank easily. It takes the same power as a cell phone. But it seems I didn't use it like a camera during that charging time. You may try it - if the camera works being connected to any USB charger it will work with an external battery. Good luck!

Yes, I have charged my GoPro camera during the day. Essentially there is a battery pack connected to the solar panel. As long as you only charge things from the battery pack in full sunlight you are okay. In my experience you never want the battery pack to lose it's charge (like by charging something overnight). Once the battery pack has lost it's charge you have to plug it in to a power source. Again, that's my experience. I've never left it out multiple days to see if it will charge back up. Overall I've been happy with the backpack.
