ower Delivery
Before using a computer to supply power to the camera, check that the computer is equipped with
a Type C USB connector. Use an optional UC-E25 USB cable with Type C connectors at both ends to
connect the camera to the computer.
Depending on the model and product specifications, some computers will not supply current to
power the camera.
Tip: “Power Delivery” Versus “Charging”
The supply of power for camera operations is referred to as “power delivery”, while the term “charging”
is used when power is supplied only to charge the camera battery. The conditions under which the
power supplied by external devices is used to power the camera or charge the battery are shown
below.

EN‑EL15c and EN‑EL15b batteries inserted in the camera will charge when the camera is
connected to an optional EH‑7P charging AC adapter, EH‑8P AC adapter, or a computer (note
that connections to computers or the EH‑8P require a UC‑E25 USB cable, available separately).
