yst Posted September 23, 2019 Share #1 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Greetings! May I ask questions about the new "D-Lux 7"... 1. It looks like the box comes without a square shape separate battery charger like the one on the "D-Lux 109", is it that correct or I am missing a charger in the package? 2. The D-Lux 7 package does come with a "AC Adapter" with a "Micro-B USB Cable" is it the only "charger" provided with the package (Please see attached photo here) ?? Is it the ONLY method to change the battery now?? 3. Is it possible to get a traditional charger like the one came with the "D-Lux 109" to charge the batteries? So that it does not need to connect the camera together each time need to charge, and can use the separate wall-plugin charger to charge extra batteries like for the "D-Lux 109" ? 4. Which method is a better one in your experience or reasoning? Thanks for your info 🙏 Welcome, dear visitor!

fotografr Posted October 17, 2019 Share #5 Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) This was a bad design idea, in my opinion. I definitely do not like having to have the camera unavailable while charging batteries. I'll be buying one like I had with my D Lux (109). Leica Store Miami carries the original type that was supplied with the D Lux (109). https://leicastoremiami.com/products/leica-bc-dc-15-charger-for-d-lux-109?variant=1404928708 Edited October 17, 2019 by fotografr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamm Posted April 23, 2023 Share #6 Posted April 23, 2023 My lovely wife bought me the 007 edition d-lux 7 as a wedding anniversary present, from Leica Store Manchester. I was surprised that when opening it there was no UK charger, only US and European ones. Fortunately I have an adaptor that I can use to plug in to the UK 3 pin socket but does the UK market standard edition d-lux 7 include a UK charger? If so I will contact the dealer to get hold of one. First day with the camera today and loving it so far. The leatherette covering is lovely and the 007 logo is not too in your face. Love the auto lens cap too. Many thanks Graham 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonel Posted April 24, 2023 Share #7 Posted April 24, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I buy all Panasonic batteries and 3rd party chargers JJC is a good make and this was £11 !!! not much really https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B087NNH9YM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wda Posted April 24, 2023 Share #8 Posted April 24, 2023 Just be aware that many 3rd party chargers lack a temperature circuit. So overheating can occur or worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wda Posted April 24, 2023 Share #10 Posted April 24, 2023 If a charger has only two pins for polarity purposes,, it is not receiving information from the T terminal. Only chargers with 3 pins are likely to be communicating with the battery, and giving the battery protection while charging. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
