re - HDMI CABLES For Canon EOS 500D

[robin8495]

I want to show my photos on my HD TV. So I am told I need a HDMI Cable HTC-100 Going on the internet I am overwhelmed by the myriad of cables from all prices �6 - �400, My question is 'which one is the right one? ' This is to connect my Camera to my HD TV to view my photos, Cable length +/- 2-4 Mtrs, just how difficult can things get?

at that length just get the cheapest you can.

HDMI is digital, so unless your using really long cables then the high quality ones are a rip off (and even at a longer length �400 is a rip off!!)

Like I said 'Chuck' The list is very long with various end connections, mini/broad/type C/Male to mini HDMI type C/ etc-etc-etc.The list of >cable-trader.co.uk< is an instance. The cable type I quoted in my question with the HTC-100 is not on this list as such.

[ChuckFickens]

you need a type c (mini HDMI) to HDMI cable

such as

Thanks very much Chuck, cable ordered.

A bit late now, but some newer TVs have a built-in card slot that you can just whack your memory card in. As yours has HDMI inputs, it's possible it has such a slot.

Thanks, LeMarchand, I will have to check this, the only slot I see is about 2.5"x2" probably not the one. If you mean my camera memory card, then its in the negative, but again, many thanks.
