I was sent the Vivitar charger, which doesn't say is compatible with Panasonic on the box at all. It specifies canon and samsung. Is this ok to still use?

It works fine on the Panasonic battery for the DMC-TS5, assuming your charger is model VIV-QC-902. You have to insert the battery in the correct direction- the battery contacts have to connect with the pins on the left side of the charger so the charge indicator glows red when it is plugged in. What I like about this product is you can use it in a car, there is a 12V cord and plug that inserts into the port on the top.

This charger works on the original Panasonic battery and the aftermarket battery. It also has a charging indicator lamp the original Panasonic charger did not have.

Yes, although I prefer and most recommend one that has a soft or slow charge, at least as an option for maximum battery life. My MAHA charger, which is around 8 years old, does just fine, but its default mode is fast charge, so I press the "Soft" button when I put the batteries in. I bought these first when they were Sanyo. Now that they're Panasonic, I hope the quality is as good.

I dont' know but I have used for my Panasonic and it works perfectly. If ur device has the same inlet for the Black plug shown in the picture then, I would say take it, and if not suited u can always return the item

I have a Samsung WB850F and the battery is compatible and the charger, also. However, I had ordered the charger for a trip to China and it stopped working while I was there. Had to wait several days until I could find a replacement. I lost MANY great photo opportunities in China because I didn't have a working charger for those days!!! The battery was fine, the problem was the charger. I was able to get a new one but couldn't make up for those lost photos!!!

I don't know about the Vivitar charger but the Wasabi batteries do not properly register on the Canon Charger and will not fully charge on the Canon charger. Vivitar may be the same issue. Full charge for these Wasabi batteries requires they be charged on Wasabi not Canon charger.

I don't know. I suggest you consult with Panasonic, support, lenses, firmware updates.

Thanks SFer!I agree 1000%! I was planning on purchasing another Panasonic battery so that I have one on standby, but I can't find the Panasonic one, and I can't tell which other one to buy. Every time I think I found it, I read reviews on it and people say not to buy it because it's not compatible. It's really confusing. Fortunately for Panasonic, I really LOVE the camera and can't wait to get my hands on it.Thanks for the list of what's included. You're right about that too... no list anywhere to be found. What's up with that??I'll go to Panasonic and download the PDF file you mentioned.Thanks! Thanks SFer!I agree 1000%!

I had same problem. My charger was a 1029YA, but I could only find -ZB or -ZS. The compatibility list for both of these does not include the TGA470B. I spent hours on the web looking, and contacting Panasonic. There is no -YA out there...only solution is to buy the entire handset, just to get the miserable cheap plastic base part that failed....nice work Panasonic, why do you fail to support all of your products with replacement parts?

I replace mine with the Panasonic 700 mah, works fine hold the charge, I prefer name brands, cost a little more but you get better results and longer battery life. sometimes off brand leaks.

Frankly Frank, I don't know. Amazon has a lot of batteries and chargers out there. Panasonic has a lot of camera models. Be careful about buying an after market battery or charger. Some are inferior China knockoffs with batteries not to standard. (Bought this one and it WOULD NOT work with my DMC-LF1.) Sometimes it's just better to go with the OEM. - J.T.

We have the Panasonic DMC-ZS6 and the charger works just fine. I can't vouch for your specific model though.

I looked through the manual and it appears that one can only charge it with the charger that comes with it. You could go to the Panasonic site and look at the manual for the camera to see what it looks like. I love the camera, especially after I tried to float one last summer when I was fly fishing.

The camera comes with a battery pack (NB-11LH) and a battery charger. I ordered a spare battery from Amazon. I purchased a two pack from Vivitar (VIV-CB-11L which was less than half the price of a Canon spare battery. They work just fine in both the camera and charger

The best that I can tell you is to check with Canon. In fact you should always check to see if your product is compatible with each other.
