Hi! it includes battery charger?

Hi! it includes battery charger?
Asked by: Gabriel
The battery is normally charged in-camera via a mini-USB cable connected to the supplied AC power adapter. It can also be charged by such a cable connected to any USB power source capable of supplying the same 5 volts at 1.5 amps as can many cellphone chargers. Certain, but not all, USB3 (not USB2) connectors in computers are capable of doing this too. The OM-5 battery was long used by Olympus and can therefore also be correctly charged by the Olympus BCS-5 AC charger that was for quite some time included with older Olympus models (this is what I normally use instead of in-camera charging). You might be able to find one of these for very little in the used marketplace. I would never charge any non-OEM battery in-camera. If it swells up (or worse) you might end up with camera damage not covered by anybody's warranty.
