I am trying to tether my z8 to Lightroom Classic on a Windows PC. It works with the cable that is on the Lexar CF Express B Card Reader. The Card reader has a
"2-in-1 USB Type-C to Type-C and Type-C to Type-A Cable (11.8" / 30cm)" but I need around a 6 foot cable. I'm using the Type C to Type A "extension". The port on the computer is a 3.1 Type A port (it doesn't say if it's Type A or Type B, so I'm guessing it's Type A...but as you can see, I really don't know what I'm talking about. I'm trying to understand...)
I also have a Type C 3.1 port on the back of the computer. I purchased a USB C to USB C 3.2 cable and that didn't work. I also tried an Anker USB-C to USB-C cable, but I'm guessing that's just a charging cable and doesn't do data transfer because it didn't work either.
Again, the cable that came with the Lexar Card Reader works, but it's way too short. Can anyone lead me to what kind of cable I need to purchase that is like the one on the Lexar Card Reader.
Thanks much for all your help....
