    Can I use a 4.5 volt adaptor for a 3.7 volt camera?
    Hi. I have a Konica Minolta Dimage X60 camera. (I am not an electrician so please don't be mad at me for asking). The camera recommends a 3.7 volt adaptor (Model AC-4), but I don't have the adaptor. I have a 4.5 volt adaptor that fits the DC terminal of the camera. Is that okay or will it overload the camera? Thanks.

    You are best off to use what it calls for. If you were supposed to use a 4.5 volt adapter, that is what it would tell you. You are taking a chance on ruining the camera by using the wrong adapter.
