really silly questions but...can i just use an adapter for my camera, cell phone, laptop, etc? or do i need a transformer as well?

There will be many posts in previous months on just this topic but here goes: check to se if you electric item is dual voltage already. On the electric details printed on the item it will say something like 110/220 volts. If this is the case then all you need to do is buy a pug adaptor. This is most likely the case.
If your item is switchable like some hair dryers that I have had then just switch it to 220v and use the plug adaptor.
If the item is older and is neither 110/220 v compatable or switchable then you need a power converter. Just be sure you get a converter that has sufficient current capability (watts)

I was wondering this as well and since there are SO many topics on this, it is nice to see it summarized so well. Thank you.
