I have a piece of PVC sticking out at the back of my lodestar. From day one this mini USB connector scared me.
I think camera manufacturers should think about this when designing their sockets and connectors. I know it can't be bullet proof but designing countersunk connections etc... is not that hard when manufacturing the outer-casing. Just needs some planning ahead.
