I have a 6300 coolpix and when I connect the cord to charge it, no light comes on and the battery does NOT charge. I did find on a Canadian Nikon website that the issue is 'known' and due to a firmware bug. I did speak to Nikon about this and they advised I send the camera in for repair (+ firmware upgrade) and that I'll be responsible for all shipping+repair costs. My position is, if this is a firmware issue, then Nikon should cover all 'repair' costs. Yet, the Nikon people I spoke to stood by their position that, the camera is out of warranty and I need to PAY for it to be repaired.
Is there a workaround, like charging the battery by other means, so I can do the firmware update myself?
The charger battery selections on eBay are usually dependable and this will work. Only problem is the time for shipping from the Orient. Don't often plug vendors but I had very quick shipping from a Canadian vendor
