I bought a camera in France and I want to use it in Canada. The main problem is the battery. To reload it (I think it's a lithium one but I'm not sure. I can check out if you need this info) I must plug it into the AC current supply at home. In France it works at a different frequency I believe than in Canada and the voltage is 220 V compared to the 110 V in Canada.
What happens if I directly plug the battery reloader into a Canadian home electrical supply? The device is made to work with 220 V and the French frequency.
My guess is that it simply won't work and will not damage anything.
I might think to just take my memory card and borrow a camera in Canada if I can't reload the battery without buying a transformer (110 V to 220 V).
