After only 3-6 months the camera stopped charging. Battery life is currently measured in minutes. You can use endless new batteries to keep this crappy camera going. I used to like Nikon, but many users complain that they basically have 5 minutes of battery life. Search the internet and you will find that many people have the same problem. I would go back to a Canon product.
