Can I use U.S. bought Ipod and digital camera in Germany? |
I'm moving from the U.S. to Germany this year and would like to know if I can still charge and download through a German computer. Same for my digital camera. I'm aware that outlets are different and can fry whatever you try to use, but the computers might be the same?? Any ideas? You can use it any where, the problem you might have in Germany is that the voltage is 230 volt as in USA it is 110 volts so check that your charger is a Double voltage or you will need a new charger when you get to Germany ( you will find one easy enough , electronic shops e-bay etc.) another thing that may give you trouble is that your digital camera will be NTSL norms in the USA and not BG as in Germany so you will not be able to do play back on your TV screen, the photos are JPEG so they are the same, and you will need a charger to use on 230 volts as for your i-Pod, as for computer down loads they are all the same and so are the USB ports USB ports are universal. Voltage to run computer parts inside the computer is the same. It is the power supply to the wall connection that is different. That is why power supplies on computers have a switch for different voltage. 110/220v You can use them anywhere Yes you just get an adapter when you are there. German PC are fine - most work will be through USB. US video output as you will be aware is NTSC. Just set the output of the camera (and iPod if its a Video) to PAL. In Europe we use a plug called a scart, if you buy a DIN to Scart adaptor (available in any electrical outlet in Europe) it will accept a PAL Video input. If your camera charges by USB, then just buy an International charger for iPod and you can charge them both. (You can buy one in the States and bring it over with you). The Germany cam will automatically blow up on your face if you're a Jew. |
