How Long Does It Take For Nikon Battery To Charge. Most of us just place the battery in the charger the night before we intend to use the camera. They take about 2 hours to charge from flat empty using the stock charger.

The battery is EN-EL14. 11 left in battery 1hr 37 min. Longest Ive ever seen is 25 hours and that was a battery that wouldnt even power up the camera.
The EN-EL14 is a rechargeable Li-ion battery that powers select Nikon cameras providing 74v and 1030 mAh of power.
But your battery does come from Nikon slightly charged so. Not having used a D60 I cant say exactly how long a battery will last but I would expect not to get 500 shots. 2 hours to fully recharge a completely exhausted battery at room temperature 23C 73F. The manual should give you an estimate on how long this will take.
