Sony DSC-T200 cable is WAY too big!
Help - my cable is bigger than my camera!
I must, must, must find a smaller cable than the monstrosity that Sony is shipping with all its cameras lately. Some MBA-type decided it would be easier to ship one cable that connects to both TVs and computers than a purpose-built cable for each … or, better, yet, just ONE cable for computers, which is what 99% of people need.
So, now I have a cable that is bigger than my camera, and a significant obstacle to its useful portability on multi-day trips.
Anyone know of a smaller after-market cable?
Takes all kinds …
I tell you, I get the weirdest email sometimes …
This one was in response to my Sony camcorder & Mac OS X: Not happy together? post from a year or so ago.
i saw your blog about about the mac and sony cam! I am the victim of samsung not connecting with mac! kinda like pam anderson and kid rock! it sort of works but not the full throatle
anywho sorry to bother you i am sure you are busy! My problem i bought my cam yesterday from compusa which is going out of buisness so all sales are final!
now i think i can take it back raising h*ll in a calm way! i would even take a credit and buy something i can use! but i did drop 230 bucks so i am pissed not break a nail pissed I cant sleep at night pissed, because i was wrong
anywho why this random email well is apple coming out with a new usb chord?
you seem like you know yo sh*t and frankly i am a new user to apple just bought the imac beast 2 days ago!
take care!

More power to you, Mary. Hope everything worked out OK - and thanks for brightening my day with your email!
I finally bought a T200
I finally broke down and bought a Sony DSC-T200.
I’ve been looking at compact cameras for a long, long time, and had my eye on the T-200. It’s tiny, but it also has a 3.5″ screen, 5X optical zoom, and mechanical image stabilization.
Besides that, it just look amazing … and frankly, the aesthetics are critically important to me as well as the photo quality and mechanical specs.
Sony is just about to launch the T-300, but in my mind the 300 doesn’t add anything spectacular, and in fact I prefer the 8 megapixels of the T-200 to the T-300’s 12 megapixels. The sensor size isn’t changing, so I think the T-300’s pictures will just be noisier as the light gets split up more and more, or software as the software valiantly fights to compensate.
It’s being delivered Monday … I’m looking forward to opening it up and having a camera that’s slim enough to take with me wherever I go …
