Camera Usb Cable For Samsung Digimax S500

Hi everyone, does anyone know where I can purchase a USB cable for the above camera? I've lost mine and the cheapest one I can find is nearly a tenner on Ebay and I can't afford to pay this much! Thanks, Vanessa

Aren't these cables standard?

I bought a retractable one in poundland for our cameras.

No, they're not. Samsung are notorious for using propietary cables.

Why do you need the USB cable ?

Cant you just use a card reader instead you can get these for £1

I agree with the above - I always used a card reader for my digimax to avoid running down the battery.
