What socket is this on my camera

[DSLiverpool]

I’ve lost the lead and nothing fits it.
It’s a Sony cybershot from about 5 years ago

I have one of those, it's either a proprietary Sony thing or it's something like a mini or micro HDMI. I know that's not much help, but if you Google versions of HDMI you might find a match.

I think it is called mini HDMI.

Sony call it the "Multi-connector Type 3b" and is used for recharging the battery.

You can still download the manual from Sony.....

It looks like the 'standard' (for Sony ) USB connector that then is used for charging and computer connection - at least that's what I use it for on my TX55.

It's where you attach the tripod.

Don’t know what the difference is but this is the specific one for your camera

Worthy of a Lol.

And another

Didn't know you can charge from that, useful to know!

Mind you although it's a nice enough camera, it's not as good as the one on my Note 9 anymore, so I don't really use it.

I have ordered a battery case / charger for £8 on prime - thanks chaps, I am gifting this to my 9 year old to start his photography obsession, looks a great camera to kick off with.
