I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 digital camera, and I'm getting ready to do some traveling in rather remote areas. I want to be able to charge my batteries (Li-Ion) with a solar charger or another device without having to find a wall outlet to plug into.

I figure the only way this would be possible is by using an adapter connected to a solar charger that can plug into the DC port on my digital camera. But does this port actually charge the batteries or just run the camera off of that power?

Or, is there another way for me to charge my Li-Ion batteries with solar power or something similar?

Has anyone else dealt with a similar issue before?

Thanks for you help!

Yes, if your camera was sold with a rechargeable battery, the power adapter charges it.

(Note: in many cameras, you can use rechargeable AA batteries. In that case, a power adaptor does not charge those batteries).

Easy way to check. Use your camera until the battery runs out.
Then put the adaptor. If later you can use the camera with no adaptor, it means it was charged.

Its a tragic actuality of life that the traditional or alkaline AA batteries are purely not made for lights up the ability hungry displays and flashes of digital cameras. the only thank you to flow is rechargeable. Get the utmost miliamp score and a sturdy charger. extremely a spare set of alkaline batteries for that emergency image is usually a sturdy theory. To get the suitable from any batteries you're able to do a number of issues. Set the brightness of the demonstrate screen to a low cost. in case you have a viewfinder (some new fashions do not), change the demonstrate screen off. If the digital camera has a "sleep mode" set it to a low cost or purely change off between photographs. (word that cameras that have a motorized lens additionally take ability as they open and close). The flash additionally makes use of a great form of ability. some digital cameras have a video mode, do by no skill use it, in case you're able to desire to have video its greater valuable to get a appropriate video digital camera. On some fashions there's a non-supply up focusing mode, great stuff yet that little focusing motor will quickly shorten battery life.
