Re: Charging in camera vs using charger

The one real risk that I see is that the PC board to which the USB port is attached is very expensive to replace. So if something should jerk on your cable when it is connected to the camera, it could damage the camera leading to many big repair dollars. I know carrying a charger can be an inconvenience but I find it easy to do.  I can charge batteries while using my camera. And that is one more cable I don't need to remember to carry along.
