Re: USB cable for EOS400D

Hi Carole

I believe they are a standard "Mini USB" connector to type "A USB" connector, like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hama-USB-Cab.../dp/B0009V8WZA

But I've no direct experience with the 400D so perhaps someone can confirm.

Re: USB cable for EOS400D

If it's a standard mini USB cable then any brand (like the one Ken posted) will do - it's just wires and two plugs so not much can go wrong.

PS3's use them to charge the joypads so you could borrow your sons when he's not using it

Re: USB cable for EOS400D

I think you do need to be a little careful as my Canon USB lead would work with a mates Nikon despite the the connectors fitting.

I don't think the Nikon cables are mini usb Paul. (Same as my Kindle - they use their own propriety connector).
