Do the batteries charge in the camera also?

Sure ... but the whole point in buying the extra batteries and charger is so you don't tie up your camera by charging the battery in the camera.

Mine do not, but neither does the one that came with the camera. The camera will show the charge, but not the battery itself.

No, but you can get a charger with 2 batteries on, I believe Amazon, for about $12. Definitely a must. So I always have 1 in the camera and 2 back ups; charged.

No, it doesn't. The power source is two AA batteries. I have purchased a separate charger and rechargeable AA batteries. They work great with the camera. Just a suggestion; no matter if you use alkaline, lithium, or rechargeable AA batteries, always have extra fresh batteries in your camera case.

Yes the camera comes with a charger to charge the small but powerful built in battery, (not tripple AAA batteries).

Yes. I've been using the batteries and charger in lieu of the battery that came with the camera.

You charge the battery while in the camera, but you should also look into buying a separate charger. Amazon does offer a package (charger with two batteries) for around $25/$26 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D2CSIUW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

No, you can charge the battery with the cord, but it has to be in the camera. I bought a separate charger and an extra battery so I always have a charged battery ready to go.

Yes, these will charge while in camera during use, just like the OEM batteries. Or at least the ones I have are doing so.

Yes it comes with a battery charger. It charges the battery while it is in the camera.

I can't say, I did charge the batteries but they did not work in my Nikon CoolPix, hope you have better luck.

No. You have to charge the battery while in the camera.Great clarity of photo's from this budget camera.

NO. The battery can remain in the camera at all times. (Cord #1)AC plug to adapter with USB... then (cord #2) USB to mini USB on camera. If you just plug the USB into a PC (cord #2), the battery will charge. I recommend charging with the AC unit initially.

Yes. It comes with a rechargeable battery and an external charger. You must remove the battery to charge it. I prefer this arrangement because you can buy an extra battery and charge it while still using your camera.

I have not had a problem with the batteries. My use of the camera is occasional so I am not taxing thebatteries to any extent. I don't recall just how long I have had the camera, but to date I have had no need to change the batteries. To my knowledge this camera does not accept charging.

My Lumix G3 will, I believe, charge the battery when it's inside the camera. I never do it that way. I charge batteries in an external charger--of which I have the Lumix charger, and also a third party (Wacom) charger that came with Wacom batteries that I bought. Either charger works for all my batteries.

Yes. If you put the battery in the camera and plug the camera in an outlet, it charges the battery. I also purchased bigger batteries that last longer. Several sizes fit well on the camera.
