THANKS!
That is
what I'm looking for, the info on how to change
this
battery (and where to get it, if you have any ideas...).
I tried
leaving the camera on the power supply for more
than 24
hours, and on an NPF960 for a couple of days,
but
still no luck with the internal battery holding a charge.
Please
"dig" away - I could use the resultant info (and
Sony
does need help in organizing the content all of its
manuals...;-).
Thanks
in advance...!
