Urgent:Sony Alpha 100 Charger Qn

[NeTHaCk]

hi there,

sorry , am not a SA/KM user but asking on behalf of a friend who needs an answer quite urgently.

with regards to the alpha 100 charger, where can i purchase it either original or 3rd party, and whats the price ?

or is anyone willing to loan one for my friend for around a week or so for a small fee

not sure if i posted at the right place or not...

You can get it at most camera shops. The usual suspects are MS Color, Cathay or Sony Boutiques. Price around $90, but I might be wrong.

[astrise]

$89 if I remember correctly. Overpriced as usual. We're assuming you're looking for the standard charger? Just in case, the dual charger can be found here http://www.sony.com.sg/product/ac-vq900am at $199.

[NeTHaCk]

yeah am looking for the standard charger.. are there any 3rd party ones ?

[Rashkae]

[NeTHaCk]

will contact eastgear first thing tomorrow morning when it opens

Really? Do they sell 3rd party batteries for the Alphas as well?

They should have 3rd party batteries, but I wouldn't recommend getting them. I would rather pay a little more to get the original which holds the charge much, much better. Besides it's infolithium, definitely worth the money than to get 3rd party ones.

Agreed.
