So there is no external battery charger included - correct? Charging the battery has to be accomplished with a cord.

You are correct. There is no external charger included, but as the other answer says, you can get a Sony charger easily, I did. Great charger. But - after having this camera a while, I started to love the fact that it charges with a standard micro-USB cord. I have them everywhere, for my phones, tablets, charger packs, mice, etc...it's turned out to be very handy. No matter where I am, I can just plug it in.

Yes,there is no external battery charger. I bought a combo of external battery charger + 2 extra batteries on Amazon, makes life easier. Cost is about 16-17 $ .

Comes with a cable to connect to a computer through USB. The battery will be charged in this way, but there is no separate charger. I suppose any USB charger could do.

It comes with a cable/charger combination that charges the battery while in the camera. This can be inconvenient when one needs several batteries. In the latter situation, buy a set of additional batteries and external charger from Amazon, like I did

Grannie: Yes, you can purchase an external battery charger that plugs into the wall socket and shows you when the battery is fully charged... As Drew mentioned, it works best if you have two batteries. Hope this helps.

The camera comes with one Li ion rechargeable proprietary battery. Customers have complained about poor battery life so a spare is probably a good idea (there are third party vendors). There is no external battery charger. It must be recharged in the camera via a USB cable charger supplied with the camera.

No...the external battery can not be charged as it is charging. I have tested this as well several times as I thought you would be able to.

No battery charger, you have to plug the camera into an outlet to charge it.

The backup battery charger does not use external batteries. Included with the charger is a USB cord that you plug into the external charger to charge it; you then flip the cable around to charge your device.

No the USB cord is not included. However, to charge camera you will not need it. Charger plugs into wall, battery fits directly in charger to charge.

I purchased over a year ago, I don't believe it had a battery charger. To be on the safe side, "No".
