I read in a review that the spare battery does not work with the camera. Is this true? And, does it come with a battery charger?

Believe me when I say the battery doesn't work... Very disappointed. At least it didn't for me. But the original comes with it has excellent battery life. And yes, the camera does come with a charger.

The kit I purchased came with an extra battery and charger. However, if your not using the flash you can take several thousand pictures on a charge.

Yes, the battery and charger works great. Haven't used the battery much as I needed the charger. But the little I have used it, it seems to be as good as the one that is now in the camera.

Yes, battery is included. I just returned from a trip on which I took up to 400 hundred photos (and some movies) each day. I think the battery always lasted all day - as long as I was certain to start with it fully-charged in the morning. However, I always carry a spare battery, and I recommend it, even though the battery life of this camera is much, much better than it was for its predecessors.

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

I don't own this camera, but I'm hearing it does not have a seprate charger. It charges on the camera. The battery has been around for a while, and you should be able to find an external charger cheaply.

The one I ordered did not come with its own charger. I have other non-canon batteries for my Vixia camcorder and used the charger for those to charge the battery successfully.

It does not use a battery charger. You put the battery inside the camera, then you charge the camera/battery.

If additional batteries are available for purchase, I would take charged up spares. Having said that, I really don't know if spares are available given that the battery is charged within the camera. Good luck and have a fabulous trip! G&P;

It comes with a usb charger cable that can be plugged into the camera, not a a battery charger that you can put the camera battery in.

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

It comes with a charger...but not the style you can put a battery in. One that plugs into the camera itself.

It comes with a cord to charge the battery while its in the camera. And I didn't have a problem with the extra battery, it worked fine.

Yes it came with a battery charger for the camera. Be truthful you can't beat the price and package. It has everything you need. Hope this helps.

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.
