The Starter Tethering Kit from Tether Tools gives you all the essential gear needed to create a secure data connection between your camera and computer for a tethered workflow. This kit comes with a black USB 2.0 cable that is equipped with a Type-A male connector on one end and a USB mini-B 5-pin male connector on the other side, making it compatible with digital cameras. This USB 2.0 cable is 15′ long and transmits data at a rate of up to 480 Mb/s.
Tether Tools includes two JerkStoppers that remove the strain placed on the computer and camera’s ports from the connecting cable and help ensure the cable stays connected. For preventing tangles, ten ProTab cable ties keep the power, video, and other types of cables well managed and organized. In addition, this kit provides a Tether Tools organization case, so you can store the included cable, cable retention devices, and cable ties.
Please note that only the USB cable is covered by a limited 90-day warranty that does not guard against wear and tear.

Just what I needed for my Sony a99! Secure fit cord is just the right length.

It’s big help to see your photos as you take them. Images are a lot different when on computer, compared to the little camera screen.

Connection is good, can be finicky at times but does a great job. Very easy to use with Lightroom

Had the plain tan and black cable and replaced them with this easy to see cable. the length was good.. I like to shoot tethered and 15ft was a good size for my needs

I use the TetherPro cable for portraits at my home studio. I like the high visibility orange and 15 foot of cable.I purchased a similar product from another manufacturer and had too many dropouts, I purchased the tethered pro and have not had a single issue.

15′ TetherPro cable was exactly what I was looking for to replace other cables with extensions. Easy to see in dark studio.

Just what I needed! No complaints, 15′ is perfect for mobility. I use it with my surface pro, boom! click and view.

i use an external wifi card from alfa industries to connect, this is the cable i use and i must say wifi capabilities are great no matter what length the cable is … if you use a cheap cable then shortest will prevent loss of wifi but that means using a 3 inch cable … but not with tetherpro no matter how long it is wifi will BE 100% …

I really wanted a longer cable but I was unable to find one. This worked perfectly I had enough room to length to move around freely.

The TetherPro cable is easy to use and offers a nice, long reach. I used this in combination with the JerkStopper and it worked very well for a head shot marathon.

I use the TetherPro USB Mini_B 5-pin cable to tether my D4 to Adobe Light room software on my Laptop computer for my Event photography. This cable replaced the cable that came with the camera and an extension cable. I have noticed an increase in the transfer speed from camera to computer since I started using the TetherPro cable with a direct connection to the laptop versus connection with an extension cable between camera and laptop.

I used this shooting a Nikon D7000 in an all day photo shoot. It worked all day with no problems. The orange color made it visible against the dark flooring.

Tried to use Adobe Lightroom for tethered capture and that did not work at all. Looked at forums and what not and found that Adobe is a laggard when it comes to this function. Tried a trial version of Capture One with the TetherPro and it worked perfectly with no set up, no headaches. The chord and Jerk Stopper work well as they should is it is minimal technology.

We needed a tough, long cord to go from a Canon mkIV to a laptop for comercial shoots and this was the answer. I was a little put off by the bright color, but I am glad about it now. No confusing it with anything else laying about. Highly recommended!
