Yet another strike for Adorama. I know some used parts won't come with cables or instructions sometimes. But when the cable is needed to use that part (and one that is not common) they need to make sure it is in there.

I think you are directing some of your anger at Sigma when it should all be at Adorama. Sigma has no obligation to make a universal cable for their product when they ship it with the required cable. Adorama dropped the ball on this one, not Sigma.

Yes, mistakes happen! But as I'm sure you read this is a USED item - and if the OP contacts me: Helen@adorama.com we will fix the mistake!!!

Yup. That's why I said I know some used parts won't come with cables. But, when it's a cable that is needed to use the part, it should probably be included. If I buy a used camera that is missing a usb cable, that's fine - I can still use the camera.

Also, sucks that you are stuck always cleaning up Adorama's messes. They need more of you!

BTW we contacted the OP, and the missing cable will shortly be speeding on its way to him.

Yes, I am sad that this thread got so negative, all I was asking is if anyone knew what the connector was. I appreciate the help and support.

As it is, thanks to Helen and Adorama, the cable has already been addressed, BEFORE I EVEN CALLED!

Zero input on my part. :)

Thanks Helen and Adorama.

Sounds like a good deal to me. Might not be a very exclusive spa however...

Sort of like Canon MFA? We should not see it as a feature but a patch to a problem that shoud't exist?

But no one would expect you to be even handed or fair minded so...

IMHO the Dock offers me options and features that I would love to have for my Canon lenses. Maybe some day Canon will catch up.
