I have the D600 series. I have been googling all morning trying to find out if they work without the battery.
The reason? It took another dump. This time, plugged in, I hit the power button, it lights up, and then quits.
I know some work without, and some wont. If the battery is bad, and it doesnt work without it, then I guess I need a new one.
I think the battery is about 3 years old.
Any other suggestions of what may be the problem would be great!
