Is the camera end not standard mini or micro USB - most are? In which you can the cable anywhere for peanuts?

actually found the Kx and K30 have non standard usb cable (dont know about the other models). that said if you do know the name it's probably a couple of quid on ebay..

I have a drawer full of old unidentifiable/odd camera USB cables (If I recal, Fuji had a habit of using some strange "ends" in the past)

Can you take a picture of the camera socket - I'll see if I have anything to match.

Just done some digging before I start proper work for the day. Is it this one ?

If it is, I'm afraid I can't help - that looks like a very odd end.

However, if it is, it's the same as a NIkon UC-E1 - and readily available sub-£5 on eBay

A phone call to SRS should do the trick, or check out their website for Pentax Accessories.
Best regards, John

I've just checked the GX-10 (K-10D) that I am selling here, and that has an odd-looking non-standard micro-USB-sized connector and found the cable for it (surprise, surprise for any new owner!) - so that is probably the same as the one being looked for as my camera is only a couple of years younger in design?
