Description
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.

Well designed and quality of product!

Easy to plug in. Seems to stay connected securely without falling out.

I attached this to my Canon 5DIII for a studio photo shoot recently. This allowed me to show the model & fashion designer the images as I was taking them so we could maintain social distancing.

In my home studio, as a beginner, I’m feeling like a pro as tethering to my IMac. It is awesome.

If you’re shooting portraits and aren’t changing locations rapidly this will become a huge time saver. It’s such a nice increase in mobility.

Tethered shooting is definitely the way to go. I used to string together usb cables but it looked very unprofessional. This cable is great. Very well made and should last a long time. I use a jerk stopped on my camera but not on my MacBook Pro Retina I would rather lose a shot from unplugging than have a $3800 computer fall to the floor!

I use this cord as a Tether between my MacBook Pro and my Nikon D5200. The bright color helps keep me from tripping over it all the time. It is also long enough to not have to have a stand close to the camera – which is more expensive than I can justify at the current time.

I’ve tried to transfer files from my Canon 6D, and tether with a 7D and 5DM3, and no dice. Just hangs there. No issues using a card reader or anything else.

nice cable and different color so easy to spot in my kit
Eddie Bruen (verified owner) –
I bought this cable to shoot tether with my Nikon D600 and my laptop. I think the price is too much for just a cable, but works perfect.

Easy to hook up to the camera and laptop

I’ve yet to find anything wrong! This cable is well made and had no problem linking up with my Nikon.

Decided to try cabled tethering and was pretty happy with this product. My only complaint is that I wish it had a right angle plug for the piece that attaches to my camera.

Nice solid cable. The orange color stands out on set and is a good safety measure for preventing tripping or having your camera pulled over. Get the JerkStopper Camera Support accessory to avoid putting additional strain on your camera’s USB connection. 15′ of length gives you a nice amount of room to work with. Transfer rate is great for single shots & short bursts. Longer bursts will obviously take longer to transfer.

Good price! Glad they still sell this ink for my old printer!!

This is worth it. Really fast really reliable. No more camera connection dropping out in Lightroom because I am using old cables. ~TEU

It worked wonderfully it allowed me to shoot tethered with my laptop and in the dark and I can see it this is bright orange
Shakira Corwin (verified owner) –
It’s a simple product. It did everything it was supposed to do. The high-visibility orange was nice for shoots with a lot of crew running about, not so good for shooting some reflective product shots when I could see the orange reflecting in the product. Had to swap it out.

I used to work in musical instrument & pro audio retail and I hate to pay retail for cables, but I also realize the value of having good cables where data and audio transfer are critical. I bought these cables for all of my camera tethering and for data communication with one of my synthesizers to communicate with my computers. Im very pleased with the construction and performance & I also like the bright orange so these cables stand out from my other data cables.

Have been really impressed with the quality of all the Tethrpro cables we have purchased. The quality is great.
