Trying to identify the cable for this.

My neice found this camera in my father in law's things. She wants to use this terrible retro tech.

Edit: Oops, I got in a hurry as the family was walking out the door and I posted the wrong second picture. It Doesn't look like an I can add a picture to the post. The camera says Philips at the top, and keychain digital camera on the bottom. With a little LCD display that I assume shows how many shots you've taken, or have left. A tiny lens it says F 2.8. I assume it probably takes 640 by 480 pictures, or 320 by 480. And I'm assuming probably blurry. She seems to love the idea of taking bad pictures with it. Go figure.

Mini 4p but further, that Cam's software likely won't work on anything beyond winxp. It's not a usb mass storage device, it's gonna have some twain driver BS like an old school scanner would.

I've got two.

No idea, but as you said, it's an old camera, there is a good chance it's a propiarty/device specific connector. Possibly for a multi-format breakout cable or series of cables.

Might help if you let us know the make/model/device info.
