I'm fed up that cameras don't come with chargers anymore, but there's an ingenious solution for Canon and Sony

Llano 18W Fast Dual USB Charger and llano NP-FZ100 compatible batteries.

Have you bought a new camera in the last few years, only to discover the all-important charger is missing from the kit? Instead, there’s just a USB-C (PD) cable for in-camera charging. Camera manufacturers might argue that the kit is already complete with a charging cable, and they're avoiding unnecessary waste given many people don't need a dedicated charger – those that really must have a traditional charger, can buy one separately.

Yes, I have to concede that this is in part true, but at the same time, I still maintain that not including a traditional charger doesn’t constitute a full camera kit. Not to mention, with camera prices rocketing, I can’t help but feel somewhat short-changed when I have to buy a charger separately.
