The camera itself does not use batteries to operate. You can take pictures without batteries. The camera is, however equipped with a light meter that uses a discontinued mercury battery. There are replacements and adaptors that can be used to replace the battery. I have taken great pictures without the light meter during the daytime. You can also purchase a light meter that can be operated manually.I bought a light meter for low-light situations, I have yet to use it though. I hope this helps. I hav

This isn't a battery operated camera. Just buy any film associated with the camera, pop it in and take pictures! No batteries required.

I believe mercury batteries but they don't make those anymore so hearing aid batteries should work

The camera uses a standard Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. The battery is a small flat model that is commonly used by digital point-and-shoot cameras of this type. I take a lot of pictures on a given day and have never run out of power. I did however purchase a spare battery and car charger from Amazon for under $20.

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 a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The battery must be recharged in the camera (no separate charger is provided) so an extra battery is handy.

This camera only takes only the recommended rechargeable battery. They are inexpensive, $7 - $10, and can be ordered online.

Haven't had any problems with batteries, but it takes very poor pictures. I finally forked out the money and got a good camera, ie Cannon. Since Kodak is out of business they wouldn't even give you any help with their cameras.

I don't know the type of battery in the camera, but it does recharge when you are plugged into a 12V power source. Mine has lasted about 2 hours while I piddled with some of the pictures and it didn't stop. I don't know the actual run time of the battery

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 :(

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

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.

This camera does not use a typical AA battery. I'm not sure exactly what kind of battery it is but it is rechargeable and came with the camera. Leave the battery in the camera and plug the adapter into the camera to recharge. I did find I needed to recharge every day on our trip otherwise the battery would die mid day on the second day.

You will need some regular AA batteries. It takes two. I really suggest you get four and make them rechargable because this camera will suck the charge out of them very fast. Get a 1 gig the cheaper the better.

It uses the nikon EN-EL20 rechargeable li-ion battery. Also works with J2, J3, AW1 and a few other coolpix point and shoots.

I am sorry, S. Jay. I have no idea what batteries it uses. It was a Christmas gift for someone else, so I never opened/looked at it. If there is a Best Buy near you, I think they sell these types of cameras so you may be able to find out that way. Sorry!

It has a Lithium Ion rechargeable battery Type SLB-10A 3.7V 1050mAh (3.8 Wh) that is available from Samsung, but there are also third party manufacturers such as Lenmar DLSG10A. A very good camera, by the way. Very good pictures and very durable and versatile.
