Will a USB port charge my sanyo x1250 camera?

Since you've already tried different batteries, you have a couple of other options...

• Instead of plugging the USB cable into the camera's wall charger, plug it into the USB port of a computer, or even into a USB phone charger.
• Try another wall charger.
• Try another USB cable.

Here's the PDF manual for your camera, if you need it: http://us.sanyo.com/dynamic/extranet/servicers/VPCT1495.pdf
(Page 16 contains info about charging the camera)

You need to connect the camera with a USB cable to the computer.
Only then the USB connection screen appears on the camera's monitor. There you select computer and press the set button.
The screen to select the connection mode appears
Select "Card Reader" and press the select button.
Now the camera is connected in the card reader mode.
If the windows automatic playback screen appears on the computer monitor, close it.
Double click on the desktop [Mediaimpression 2] icon to launch Mediaimpression 2.
The Mediaimpression 2 home page appears
Click the right top icon [Import]
Then the files in the camera appear on the screen.
From there you can chose the files you want to safe on your computer. You can chose or make folders where you want the files on your computer.

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa.

Assuming a healthy camera battery, capable of holding a charge - try another cable / USB port / Computer first.

When it's same on all USB ports and a different computer, wiggle the USB connector on the camera carefully. If the connection is ok at some point, it's the camera USB port making bad connection.

hi According to your information, somehow your camera has lens unit defective. Your local repair shop would charge around $ 35 to 75 depend on what really want to charge. Thanks and best regard!

My wife got this for Christmas. The battery was installed from the manufacturer backwards. After looking inside I noticed 3 pins that matched the connections on the battery. Flipped the battery around and viola. I'd bet other people are having the same issue.

Replacing the LCD screen will not be cost effective. Compared to the cost of buying a new camera, it will cost more than it is worth.

Did the mains charger connect to the camera's USB port? If so, it will probably charge from any USB port including your computer. Otherwise, no.

I found a charger (and batteries) for this camera on Amazon by searching for "Sanyo x1250 charger".
