Can I use AA batteries with this camera or do I need to buy a seperate battery holder pack?

You need a separate battery pack to use AA batteries. But, they only cost a few dollars. Good to have as they have about twice the power as the standard battery and it is nice to have a readily available backup if your batteries go dead.

The K-50 does not include the optional AA battery adapter, which runs $39.99 (MSRP) but with theoptional adapter the K-50 can use AA Batteries (x4). The camera comes with the Lithium Ion Rechargeable battery and charger.

This camera just uses 2 AA batteries. My daughter gave me my last Kodak camera, and she also gave me rechargeable batteries with a charger and the batteries work great in this camera. Happy Picture Taking!!!!!

It takes 4 AA batteries. You can buy Eneloop rechargeable batteries seperately and they work great with this camera.

No, AA batteries will not work. The camera comes with a battery pack and charger. Hope that helps!

This camera uses four AA batteries - preferably Lithium (available here at Amazon), or a charger and rechargable batteries (also available from Amazon), or alkaline AA batteries. I prefer disposable batteries and although more expensive than alkaline AA batteries, it seems smart to buy and use AA lithium batteries, since they are supposed to have EIGHT times more useage than alkaline batteries. The camera includes four off-brand AA batteries, which are great for beginning practice use of the camera.

I think mine came with the AA adapter inside. Press the two white buttons to the side to remove the AA adapter and you can use the canon batteries.

You can only use the grip. Replaces the specific camera battery with the grip, which uses a series of AAs.

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 takes just 2 AA batteries It doesn't have to be any special brand. This camera takes great pictures. Enjoy your camera! I love mine. Sincerely Doreen

Yep, you can use AA batteries (4). Will last a few days with moderate usage. We use these on our ATV's and this feature has saved me a couple of times.

Great question, it confused me to.Definately double AA batteries and for the record you will love this camera.

Yes. It will take regular aa or rechargeable. Depending on how many pictures you are going to take, it's worth the small investment for the rechargeable batteries.

If your camera says it takes +AA batteries, I don't see why it cannot be used.

No it can't. You can use two AA batteries, or buy rechargeable AA batteries, but they will die fairly fast. Also for better quality pictures I'd highly recommend Nikon products instead. I had this camera and I was extremely disappointed in the quality of the photos. Good luck! :)

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.

Unfortunately the design of this camera doesn't allow to put AA batteries instead of Lithium Ion Camera Battery For Sony (acumulator battery), which is included in the set. However I don't have any problems with it. Usually fully charged original acumulator battery is sufficient for one day shooting. My own acumulator battery is working well for more than couple of years since I bought this particular Sony camera.

you can run 4AA or 8AA batteries to take pictures but they say to have 8 in for video mode and the batteries last a long time with this camera
