usb cable: Is the usb cable a regular mini-usb (my camera, calculator and phone have these...) or is weird on one end...as in unique to that device?

it is the same as my camera usb cable the small trapazoid that is narrow. It is not the standard one though found with larger devices with the 6 sided barn shape.

Oh, wait. I'm sorry, I'm thinking about a self-release cable. Duh. Yes, mine came with a USB cable. A VERY short one.

Yes, it does come with a USB cable. However, on my camera, the cable bent the pins of the camera's USB port. I had to buy an external charger to charge the battery because the USB no longer worked. My advice - be careful when plugging in the USB cable to the camera.

I ordered a cable from Amazon to connect my Olympus D-400 camera to my computer and received one with the correct cable end for the computer but a small rectangular post for the camera instead of the round post-type connector required. I haven't found a local dealer with the correct YSB cord. Have you ?

Yes it comes with a standard USB cable. I use it with an iPad so I don't use the cable with it.

I believe it's a microB usb on the camera end to a standard usb. I'd use a standard usb extension cable as suggested though. The cable that came with my camera is 2' long.

Regular USB used with other cameras. FYI this product is not as good as I thought before purchased.

It doesn't use a standard usb cable. I can't find the name for it. It's like the product in the link but with the connection on the far left. http://www.amazon.com/hsini-Mobile-Phone-Computer-Charger/dp/B0049ME3BM/ref=sr_1_19?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1430278282&sr=1-19&keywords=usb+cable

It's just a normal micro USB cable. You can find one at any tech store like microcenter or probably even CVS. Check to see if your phone charger fits because a lot of phones use micro USB cables too.

It appears to be the correct USB cable for the camera. However, the small connector comes in two varieties. None is very slightly larger than the other, and will absolutely not fit the camera socket.

No, you need a different cable for that... this connects to the calculator on one end and a standard USB connector on the other end...

Thanks, I finally got it today but there is a cable that looks like a usb cable and charger cable, are they the both thing in one cable?

It's a very unusual type of USB port, it's neither Micro, Mini, nor Mini-B. This type of port was more common back when Palm Pilots were popular (that's what this design was originally made for).

Yes the USB cable is permanently attached at the camera end. It is about 2 foot in length -sufficient to sit the camera at the top centre of the screen and still reach the USB ports on the back.

Suzanne is correct. This device does annoyingly require proprietary software drivers to access it. But, at least the cable is standard USB.It does not accept the very thin type, such as most non-iPhone smart phones. Instead, it accepts the thicker type and is about the same width as a pencil.

If you are buying the calculator the cable is included I made myself the mistake of buying one and now I have two. It is a regular USB so it would not connect to any phone.

That isnt a USB port, its a PICTBRIDGE port. a few years ago, there was a push for an industry standard port for cameras and pic phones mainly to allow mobile print booths and drugstores to always be able to connect to anyones devices without a PC specialist and a box of cables or a 50 in 1 card reader. So they created PICTBRIDGE. what they didnt realize was, its basically a dedicated 1 function USB port, but if theyd simply made USB the standard and included driver instructions onm the devices to connect to PC or MAC, they woulda been fine anyway. the PB port connects to the included cable (optional on some units) and when detected, the printer and camera "sync" and you can start printing even without a PC using the camera or printer screen(If it has one) as the controller. Alas, most PB ports from canon are ONLY PB. Some other printer brands that have included the PB port also allow it to function more like a real USB and you can connect a flashdrive to it, though generally they are never fully a USB and even the flexible ones wont support a card reader or a wireless network adapter or a modem. Use it for what it is intended for. If not, USB hubs for the PC are very cheap
