Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about data connectors on consumer grade cameras even if they do cost in the $400 range. That said, if you ever find a cable that plugs a $30 caliper into a usb port, I wouldn't mind seeing the url for it. I've a short one I'd like to fix to the barrel of my Sheldon's tailstock. It would make a nice calibrator for the z axis on my 6040 too. Take care & stay well. Cheers, Gene Heskett. -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
