Nearly all cameras use an SD card, so who needs a lead?
The instructions for my £110 Nikon compact say it's 'better' to remove the SD card and plug that into the computer, rather than using the (supplied) lead.
Seems to me paying £100 or so gets you a smaller, thinner, camera with no loss of quality
Battery power might be worth thinking about.
My Nikon has its own rechargeable battery, which is smaller and thinner (see above) than triple or double A cells, but their advantage is they can be replaced 'on the hoof'.
