I put the battery in just now! and shot a couple of boring frames on
auto .. Apparently the battery gets recharged when the battery is in the
camera when it is attached to a USB cable that then goes into and
adaptor into the wall - I havent tried that yet.. Is that right?
battery is EN-EL5.
What I"m gonna need is the manual for it.. coolpix P520.. Will check ebay
thanks Paul, sure I'll take an extra battery

Ann -
What's the battery number. I have a dead Coolpix, but I think the
battery is OK. If it's the same thing I'll send it to you before I
get rid of the camera.

Full report later -- after I charge the spare battery that was in the
camera bag ...
John, that is just what I did.. took it to K&M near me , I hardly had
gotten the story out when the gal behind the counter took out tools
to do the chore. She
said the chamber was clean! We will find that out for sure after I
charge the spare battery that came with the camera.. K&M didn't carry
them.. and owner doubted I could find one on line if the one I have
doesn't come to life but I knew already that I could, having seen
them on ebay..
Just got home.. Expect a PESO to follow by tomorrow if all goes well..
Thanks all for your contributions to this project :-)

Just a SWAG, but you could take it to a local camera store and
they'd get the battery out for you & sell you a new battery at the
same time.
Although it looks like you can get two EN-EL5 batteries plus a
charger from Amazon for the same price as just a battery from B&H.

a friend donated a Nikon coolpix P520 from 2013 to my ebay
shelves.. barely used.. on examination there was a sd card with
pics on it in
the camera..but also a battery. the pictures on the card were from
a trip my friend and his fiance took in June 2013. the battery
won't come out.
I fear it haddent been touched since. which would be great if he
had taken out the battery before storing it. :-(
How bad is it? Possible battery hasn't leaked? Ugh.
I'd actually keep it for a backup and carrying around camera if it
could be fixed and not cost too much.. and sell my Canon SX120
instead. It
is light enough for me to carry for a while and has great features.
