Strange PC-Video Cord

Bob Tuttle · 11-20-2008, 07:09 AM

The socket for the PC=Video cord on my *ist D is different than those on other Pentax models. I need the correct cord and do no know what to ask for. I obtained the camera used and it was missing. Any help here?

Unless you find a broken Optio at a flea market I doubt if you will find it much cheaper than slightly under $20...........

Most of those cords have the wrong camera end. Mine needs to be round not rectangular.
Will keep looking.
