Connecting a PowerShot to a New MacBook

SM325

I have a PowerShot A4000 IS.  It came with a cable that allowed me to hook it into my MacBook.  I am guessing the end that connected to the camera is a USB 2.0 mini Type B plug (five position).  The other end is a USB 2.0 type A plug.

 

I recently purhcased a new MacBook.  It only has lightning connections.  What cable do I need to connect my PowerShot to my new MacBook?

Have you tried doing a web search?  Apple makes an adapter.  "  Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter  "

An adapter!  Silly me.  I was thinking about purchasing a whole new cable.  Is this what you are suggesting?

Or I could buy it directly from Apple:

Lightning or USB-C? most of the new ones are USB-C - make sure you get the right one. USB-C is oval, while lightning is pretty square.
