Hi Don,

The DC290 does have a separate battery to run the time/clock in the camera.
It also uses power from the AA batteries to power the camera and its
features as well as charge the little memory cell. The memory is retained
for a short time if correctly charged. If you cannot keep power in your
camera, or if the time is always off, I suggest you have the camera
serviced. You can call us for a charges at 800 235-6325. There is a
replaceable battery that is recharged when you insert fresh AA batteries or
have the camera plugged into a charger. The memory will last for about 5
days.

Talk to you soon, Don, Happy Holidays.

Ron Baird

You are right Rolf, it is not reviewed in the manual. I am relating what I
have reviewed with our service team.

Talk to you soon.

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.
