Ron:
I appreciate your explanation of the DC290 Clock Battery. However, I
still need information for replacing the battery without the help of a
Service Center. Surely, it is not a Kodak "trade secret" for the
clock battery user replacement. I also have a Canon G5 Digital
Camera, which refers to their clock battery as "Date Battery." The
Canon G5 Camera User Guide, illustrates the location, and replacement
procedure for the "date battery." Surely, Kodak is able to "match" or
"come close" to the information provided by Canon, for replacing the
clock battery (maybe I am using the wrong Kodak name...time
battery...date battery...?). Kodak DC290 Digital Camera Serial Number
EKT95001907, and Service Code 3280.
Thanks for your help.
