Does this come with a CHARGED battery AND/OR a BATTERY CHARGER????? I've ordered the separate battery-and-charger pack, but it will arrive after the camera does. Will I be able to use the camera when it arrives? Will I have to wait until the second...

Comes with a battery and a charger but the battery needs charging prior to use.

I will have to go back and look. I believe it came with the usb charger cable. I also had an earlier Lumix w/came with a separate battery charger which works and I prefer to use, so I don't think I've used the charging cable more than once.

It comes with the battery but no battery charger. To charge the battery you will plug the camera to an USB adaptor and then to the wall. I bought the Wasabi dual battery pack with charger for 29USD and it has been the best purchase for my 2 month trip to Europe.

No. It comes with it's own battery and charger. If you travel a lot or tend to lose things (like me) buy an extra battery and an extra charger before they stop making them for that camera. Otherwise it takes good pics and lasts forever.

Hi Gentle Touch, No the Battery do not come with a Charger. I use the one that came with my camera. I hope this helped.Greg

Yes, the camera came with charged batteries. I bought a charger and extra batteries so I am never without charge for the camera. I love being prepared with all the extras I bought.

It comes partially charged. It will need about three or four hours to fully charge. I bought a spare battery and also a charger that will plug in the wall. This way I can charge one battery while I'm using the other in the camera. Hope this helps. You will love the pictures your camera takes.

Yes, a battery is included. It only charges on the camera unless you purchase the separate charger. I purchased the charger and an additional battery so I can be charging while the camcorder is in continous use.

The battery is charged when you connect to your computer with USB or it has a 110 adapter so you can plug your camera in. It doesn't have a separate battery charger.

Yes it comes with a battery pack, charger, and a strap. You can purchase a battery adapter separate which holds AA batteries (I use this as a backup to the rechargeable battery that comes with the camera).

I see the two answers here say that the camera comes with a battery charger. Mine did not, nor was it listed as something that it was supposed to come with. It did come with a battery, and an AC adapter to charge the battery directly through the camera. I purchased two "Wasabi Power Battery (2 Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-BX1 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1, DSC-RX100, HDR-AS10, HDR-AS15" for $18.99 each, giving me five batteries total, and two battery chargers. I can't possibly take that many pictures in one day, the batteries work as good as the Sony one, and I now can charge the batteries outside of the camera, which has to save wear and tear on it.

Christian, it comes with a battery charger. Mine got left behind on a trip and I ordered another from amazon. Just put in "battery charger Pentax WG-2" You will find several options. There's a package with extra battery, ac/dc charger, SD card and other accessories for $45. You can get a simple replacement battery and charger for about $10.

My camera came with the factory battery and charger and included an additional aftermarket battery and charger. Nice to have options. BTW, the aftermarket battery lasts longer than the Nikon battery.

YES it comes with battery and charger. But I would purchase a second battery. Outstanding camera!!!

No Battery comes with it and to charge a battery you can plug into your computer but there is not a separate charger. By the way- This is a good camera but I had a Fuji before it and liked it better because I thought it was easier to use. The Fuji also came with a separate rubber casing that was great for "gription" in wet conditions plus it gave the camera more shock protection. I would still have the Fuji if I had not lost it:(

1) no. 2) I have used a battery pack and it charges the camera's battery just fine 1-4 hours and during this downtime you cannot use the camera till it is finished charging. After my purchase I contacted the company and asked several questions also made a few recommendations as a customer that could make the camera more user friendly etc. No response! I am currently researching for another camera that will fit my needs and use this one as a backup or spare.
