yep, standart USB cable is used to charge up your photo device

Not only are you 5½ years late to this thread (it was answered in 2017), but your information is incorrect for the question that was asked. These two "photo devices" (M3 & M5) CANNOT be charged using a standard (or any other) USB cable.

The OP (person you replied to) has also not posted on DPR in 4½years.

You aren't entirely correct, I can put the battery from either of them into M6 mk II, RP or R10 (or any other late entry canon which uses LP-E17) and even use external powerbank to charge because those 3 use dog standard USB-C.
