Can the battery be charged in the camera ( like the way we charge a cell phone), or is the charger a separate unit and battery have to be removed?

Yes you can charge the battery in the camera. U must have got the USB wire and adapter. This can even be harged in yourr car using the USP port

You charge the battery while it is still in the camera. You will have to buy a separate wall charger if you want to charge the battery without it being in the camera.

The battery is an external one and it is included. There is no external charger for the battery, it is charged via a USB cord and plug which are also included once the battery is connected to the camera. It can charge from a wall outlet or computer.

There is no separate charger. You charge the battery while it is in the camera. I was surprised by this inconvenience (when using 2 batteries) for such a well-designed and not-so-inexpensive camera. But that's Sony!

The camera has a cable. You connect it to the camera and into an electric plug. If you want a charger that recharge the battery, you have to buy it separatly. Regards

It charges in the camera, which is very convenient. To get the battery out just push that orange tab inside away from the battery.

No, it's charged with a USB cord to the camera, but you can get a separate charger and battery from several sources.

No, the battery charger is separate. You take the battery out of the camera to charge it, at least for my model. I believe all Sony cameras work that way.

Basically, though it is not built in. I had an earlier model with a battery that came out to be charged. This battery looks almost the same but gets charged in the camera.

There is no separate charger included. The camera itself will charge both the original Sony battery and the other battery included using an included cable. I ordered the Wasabi charger and batteries separately, and prefer using that to charging in the camera.

The charger is built into the camera. I believe you can buy a separate battery charger

Yes, but the battery has to be charged in the camera. Not a big deal, but it ties up your camera while the battery is charging. You can buy a charger that will charge the battery outside of the camera, and leave your camera free to use with a spare battery.

You have to take the batteries out of the camera and recharge them in a separate charger. Buy your choice. Or just replace batteries. A downside to this camera.

No, you can only charge the battery by removing it from the camera and using the AC charger.

Yes, you can take battery out of the camera and place it in the charger (which comes with the package) and charge.

It comes with a seperate charger. You remove the battery, install it into the charger, plug the charger into the wall and wait a couple of hours. Then reinstall the battery into the camera.
