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.

I can’t imagine shooting without this cable. It is great quality, very flexible, and the length is great! I shoot in the studio and in the field, and if you are tethered, you need freedom to move around. This is the best cable I’ve used. The connections to pc and Nikon D90 were both perfect.

As I’m starting in portraits photography, I really believe that tethering is a good thing to do. This cable really helps.

We are a busy commercial studio and have 10-20 cameras tethered and connected every day, Canon, Nikon, PhaseOne and Sony. The TetherTools cables have been far and away the most reliable, toughest, longest lasting we’ve dealt with, including those boxed with the cameras by the manufacturers. And we love the high visibility orange. On location and in the studio, they are easy to see, and thereby not trip over.

Very nicely crafted piece of gear. It is a cable and does its job as advertised. It seems like it will stand up to heavy use. How long it will last remains to be seen.

I got this cable to tether my Canon 5DMkII and 5DMkIII to my Apple iMac and my Apple MACBook Pro. It worked great using Lightroom app and the app for the Canon cameras. Very satisified!

Unable to import images from the Canon D5 Mark III into the computer and Laptop. I will return item for full credit after my return from vacation. Hope BH grant the credit.

So happy I finally got the cable. Its super long and very reliable. You only need to make this purchase once so get the long 15′ cable so you have room to move around!

Just what I needed for my D3

Shooting tethered is the only way to work for studio portraits. I can even use it for outdoors shooting, if I have some shade for the laptop.

When you need your computer attached to your camera for review, this is the cable. It is long enough not to get in the way.

I have been trying to find the correct mini USB plug for my Canon GP-E2 with no success. Thanks to your service person (do not remember his name) I was able to get the correct cord. The shape of the mini plug is different than the GPS but it has the 5 pins and fits on the GP-E2. The 5 pin cord is not easy to find and your person knew just what I needed. Thanks

Nice heavy shielded cable. I bought it with the jerk stopper attachments and it works great. Almost got the black but I think this bright orange will help keep people (including me) from getting tangled up in it.
