Yes, it can be charged through a hookup with the USB port. The cord is included in the package with the camera. It also comes with an adapter that can be attached to the USB cord for charging the camera from a regular electrical socket.

Yes, just plug charger into wall and plug cable into the small USB port on the camera and the battery will charge. And to clarify, it should also be picking up a charge by plugging the cable into any laptop or desktop, since almost all USB ports transmit power as well as data.

No, it cant done on a computer. We always need a specfic cable to do the charging. However, there is another way to do it. We can get a battery charger. I never try it, but I guess it works.

No. You charge it by plugging it (with the supplied cable) into the USB port on your computer when you download pictures you've taken. It charges pretty fast, though. I am very happy with this camera and highly recommend it.

I'm sure how you are attempting to charge it. However, this camera does not charge using the USB cord, it will only charge by removing the battery from the camera and placing it into the external the battery charger that plugs in to an electrical outlet.

If you mean using a USB cable, then yes. It takes a micro USB cable, similar to what most cell phones use to charge. If you mean can I charge it via a USB port on a computer, the answer is maybe, but it will probably take forever. I use a standard 1.5 amp charger from a phone and it charges fine.

You just need to take the battery out of the camera and insert it into the charger and plug that into the wall. No need to use the cable with the wall charger - that is for charging directly with your computer.

The USB will also charge a battery in the camera. An external charger not required.
