Olympus Camera Stuff

[180crafter]

Hey started seeing this chick and I mentioned I needed a digital camera. Well.... She had a crazy ex and he threw away the case that he thought the camera was in. She gave me the camera, But told me that I need to buy the charger and the usb cable for it.

If you check on the site... Its 100 dollars for both. Now I know my homies dont pay retail, so can you guys point me inthe right direction???

Oh and I have tried ebay, and all I get are crappy Taiwan crap. If you know a good place to buy or see a good auction, let me know.

Thanks guys, I really do appreciate it.

It's a friggin charger and USB cable, Taiwan can make it as well as anyone else.

[180crafter]

Well, The original power cord is a 4.8v and none of those taiwan charges are rated at the same voltage. I dont know if this matters, but I didnt want to take the chance. I know you cant do that in a car......

And the USB cable i havent found....

You just need the USB cable to get pics off of the camera. You can just get a media reader that reads xD Cards. If it is cheaper. I wouldn't trust a charger thats not a name brand.

Ah, that's different. You def need a charger with the same specs as the original if you can't find an original one. I thought you meant you found some that were the same, they just weren't name brand.

Yeah... they all say they work, but when you check the specs, the voltage is not the same.

The usb cable has a little tiny plug on the camera end, I dont know if that is industry standard.

Thanks for all of your help so far guys... But still looking if someone else might have a suggestion.
