Look at the charger that comes with it. Most of them these days are switch-mode power supplies, and will run happily (and are so marked) on anything from 110 to 250 volts AC, 50 or 60 Hertz.

My UK laptop's charger plugs into US mains (via an adaptor, sold at every airport shop) and works perfectly over there. Ditto my digital camera.

If it's a still camera, it will connect via your PC and you will have no problems.
If it's "movie", you may run into the NTSC vs PAL etc issue. Some are switchable, some are not. Check!
