Re: Charhing batteries abroad
Did you notice that the charger that came with your camera also works on 240v? All you will need is an adapter plug to change the pins.

Re: Charhing batteries abroad
They're still 240V, and even if they were 110 your charger would still work. Airport shops, in particular, are loaded with country-country adapters. Chase one down and you're good to go.
