Charging the EOS 1000F?

[Fuju]

I know someone that has just got a 1000F and the battery is dead. I've not seen it in person but decided to check eBay for a charger but I cannot find one. Does this need a charger or is there somewhere on the camera that has a port for charging?

What battery does it take?

The Canon Eos 1000F is a 35mm film camera which requires a non-rechargeable 6V 2CR5 lithium battery pack.

Wex does them for a penny short of £6 -- https://www.wexphotovideo.com/energ...5877347&utm_content=Bing - Shopping - Low AOV

I have an idea they took these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114589160865?epid=18011372916&hash=item1aae0bd5a1:g:0MUAAOSw209hJLTF which are not rechargeable

Confirmed by the post a second before mine which I obviously didn't see

Ha, that would be why there are no chargers! Thanks for the replies!

No charger necessary and the standard battery should last year(s).
