I am new to this group, but can anybody tell me if and where I can get
an internal bettry for my T90.
I really dont want to part with it, I have had a great deal of fun
with this camera. If all fails I will have to put up with Digital.

The T90 is still widely appreciated as a fine system camera.

I think you will find that the battery is one of the many standard
watch battery types. As you are in the UK, if you know the details of
the battery I suggest that you try Maplin Electronics:

If you cannot identify the battery, it may be worth asking the
question on a Canon FD forum such as the one at Photo.net:

http://www.photo.net/bboard/forum?topic_id=1546

or at the Canon forum on the Amateur Photographer web site:

http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/forums/ubbthreads.php

Alternatively, Fixation is a London-based Canon authorised repairer
that employs Canon UK-trained staff:

Finally, here is a link to a .pdf copy of the Canon T90 service manual
which should help if you want to fit the battery yourself:

Are you aware that there is a photo newsgroup for the UK at:

Hello T90 fan.

When the T90 was launched the internal battery was commented on.
I thought the reviews said that the camera would still function if the
battery failed but would not "remember" settings when the main battery pack
was removed.

Regards, Ian.

Steve will fix things up, leaving your Tank good-to-go for another
decade or two!

Except that the OP lives in the UK, and the airmail shipping costs
both ways will cost substantially more than the camera is worth.
