Hi
I was wondering if anyone could help.
I'm a teacher and new to the role of ICT leader. This has left me in charge of purchasing new digital cameras for teachers to use in class. My problem is I've had lots of requests for cameras with a cradle/docking station for charging. After some searching I can't seem to find anything. Does anyone know of a camera that comes with a cradle. I'm just looking for quite a simple point and shoot with max budget of £100 per camera.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I seem to remember that the fujifilm finepix I started on had a cradle.

Pretty old though. Why not just get cameras that run off AAs and buy a crapload of rechargeable batteries and a handful of chargers?

Because teachers are teachers. They will get lost, will never have power and no one will charge the batteries. The teacher will the complain and blame the ICT person and not use the camera.

If it is in a dock, it is charged and ready to go.


How many cameras can charge via USB? This might be an alternative, they are then charged when they are plugged in, so offer the same benefit.
