Battery

Note on the battery

According to Nikon, the EN‑EL15c, EN‑EL15a and EN‑EL15 can also be used instead of the supplied EN‑EL15b; with the EN‑EL15, fewer shots per charge are sometimes possible. Only the EN‑EL15c and EN‑EL15b can be charged in the camera; the EN‑EL15a and EN‑EL15 are charged in the battery charger MH‑25a.

Charging in the camera
