Rechargeable batteries

Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries can be recharged by

using a battery charger. NiMH batteries can also be recharged

in the camera when the camera is turned off and is connected

to an optional HP AC adapter or HP Camera Dock. Batteries

are fully recharged via the optional HP AC adapter or HP

Camera Dock in 15 hours.

batteries in the camera.

Some things to keep in mind when using NiMH batteries are:

four batteries in the camera.
