[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1108432, member: 56231"] Firstly, camera data transfer draws a lot of power. Instead of another USB cable (and yes, that's a standard USB > USB mini cable), consider these options: 1. Use a camera card reader (buy one online, they're very cheap), 2. Power your Panasonic camera with its 9 or 12 volt auxiliary cable (if applicable). That way the camera provides the necessary power for the transfer, 3. Buy a powered USB hub (recommended for a laptop anyway). Be sure to get one with one or two high-powered (1000 mA) ports. Targus is a good example. [/QUOTE]
