Olympus cameras need cords that are spefically made for them. This cord was advertised as "for Olympus FE Series digital cameras." But it didn't work with my Olympus FE series digital camera.

It's so cheap that it's not worth sending it back for a refund, but I still don't have a cord that works.

Perfect fit and connected without a problem. Not packaged or marked as an Olympus product, may be generic equivalent. Took over 2 weeks from order to arrival. If you are in a hurry, this may not be the best choice. Not much else to say... it's a cable, and it works.

I bought a cable as a back up for another lap top. But the one sent did not work. I had a replacement cable sent when the first one did not work. The second one did not work correctly either. When you plug the cable into the camera and PC, the camera would click, but none of the functions would work. No down load - nothing. The second cable gave a semblance of function with wierd colors on the camera. But it too would not download photos. The supplier responds quickly, however, the cable supplier is from China. They probably did not test the function of their reverse engineering with actual Olympus Cameras.

The description is misleading too. This cable looks like an Olympus cable, except the connectors are not the same. I compared my Olympus cable to the one sold to me.

I ordered the Olympus CB-USB7 USB Download Cabel for my husbands camera, after his cord was stolen. He wanted the brand name cord to match the camera. The cords were a little over $6.00 cheaper on Amazon.com then on the camera web site. It was as advertised and was shipped in the stated time frame. Works great and happy with the seller.

I just bought this cord and I love it. I lost the one I originally received with the camera. Then I ordered some cheap cord from an online retailer that came from China. Of course it didn't work. So I finally stopped being cheap (and mad at myself for losing the one I had) and purchased it. It works great and I finally took 50 million(lol)pics off my camera.

I recommend to buy this product. Its a must have item next to your digital camera.

The product description (Olympus CB-USB7 USB Download cable for the Olympus FE series Digital Cameras)is misleading. It implies that the cable works for ALL Olympus FE Series Digital cameras. It does not fit the FE-210 which is what I have. When I explained that the cable does not work for my camera, I was told "You ordered the wrong cord. This cable is replacement USB cable for select Olympus cameras only.Please double check your user manual."

Now I am out the cost of the item and shipping, got attitude from cablemart, the company that took my money and gave me nothing I could use in return. I will never buy from these people ever again.

On the Olympus site, this cprd would have cost me $29.99 + $7 shipping (for a cord?) This cord is a great price but dosent slide in as easy as my original Olympus cord. When I received the cord, intially it seemed as if it didn't fit. I was getting ready to send it back, but i tried again. You have to kind of force it in but it works. i feel this will screw up the mechnisim of the usb port....eventually. But you get what you pay for.

The cable arrived before expected and worked well immediately. It WAS the right product for my camera. This is a good source for ordering.

We received the wrong iyem. were credited immediately and got a replacement in less time than promised. Amazon is always a delight to deal with
