Panasonic DVCPRO AG-185 VHS camcorder

[TrackingError]

Hello,

I just won a Panasonic DVCPRO AG-185 VHS camcorder (listing image: http://ow.ly/bM4Rn) on eBay. The price was insanely low, so I picked it up without doing any prior research. My questions are as follows.

1. The camcorder did not come with a battery charger. Where might I find a compatible charger?
2. Is there a digital (PDF) version of this camcorder's manual available on the internet? I found a website claiming to host the manual, but the link was not functioning.
3. Does this camcorder feature manual zoom and/or manual focus?

Thank you for any information, in advance.

And the reason you bought this camera? I would have paid a little more and bought a more modern camera.

buy another one on ebay with a charger. they are only worth $20. including shipping.

I have one of those (or something close to it) in a closet somewhere. Same look, same case, etc.
The most useful thing it could do these days is act as a boat anchor.

I also have the original manual .... somewhere. Maybe. (Probably.)

I'll look when I have time. (Won't be quick.)
