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 orange 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’ve been an assistant to several pro photographers in my local area for a few years now and this is their go- to tether cable for Nikon, Canon, Hasselblad and Phase One medium format digital backs. The 15′ length responds relativley fast without having to use a booster and allowing plenty of moving space from your computer. I’ll be using my orange cable for tethering between my Macbook Pro and all my Nikon camera’s.

Loved this cable for tethering. The orange def helped with visibility. I would recommend this to anyone.

I was asked to shoot portraits for the university where I teach. As an Adobe Lightroom user I knew the software provides for tethered shooting so I purchased the cable manufactured by Tethered Tools. What a time save – portraits are imported directly into Lightroom for any post processing and cataloging. Reviewing the shot on a laptop is much more efficient than the monitor on my Nikon D3. The length of the cablemis perfect and the color is a constant reminder to watch your step.

This is a great product for connecting both my Canon 5D MK II and 1Dx to my MacBook Air when shooting at client sites. The Tether Tools JerkStopper Camera Support to hold the cable to the camera is critical to keeping it connected when moving around. The orange color provides great visibility for people who are around the shooting area as black cables just seem to disappear from view. Why not 5 stars? I’d like to see the plugs for both the computer USB and the camera mini USB fit a bit more tighter as they both feel that they will come out too easily. The Tether Tools JerkStopper Camera Support & Tether Tools JerkStopper Computer Support should be standard with this cable.

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

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.

Yes this is a good purchase because now I can see my image on a bigger screen to view and if not clear focus I can retake image
Lydia Nolan (verified owner) –
OMG. This is such an amazing thing. Lightning fast. The 15′ is a blessing. I can move around and not worry about the cord. The bonus is it bright Orange. No one will not see it.

I purchased it to connect a Nikon D4 but the part that connects to the housung which connects to the camera is too thick and I cannot close the housing.
Bailey Oberbrunner (verified owner) –
Great for shooting tethered. Bright orange color makes it hard for my assistants to trip on.
Orrin Carter (verified owner) –
I was having problems tethering my Nikon to my laptop. I kept losing the connection. I then bought the Nikon brand cable which helped. I then found this and a used longer one (one for D750 and one for D610) and both worked like a charm. Never lost a connection again.

This cable is very well made and uses quality components. I like the fact the cores are obviously multi-stranded and laid in a way that makes the cable very flexible so there are no annoying kinks and bends when it is in use. The plugs feel secure and solid and the cable works perfectly as far as tethering my camera to my computer. Only four stars because I just don’t see why it has to be so expensive. Some products are very specific to the task for which they are designed, which obviously means they fill a niche and can command a higher price. While the cable is well constructed of quality components none of them are unique and its use is not particularly esoteric.

great product, very functional and too useful … !!!

I use this cable to connect (tether) my camera to my computer, so i can immediately review the photo on a big screen right after I click the shutter. This is great for food or product photography!! Orange color helps prevent tripping!

15 feet length is useful for teathered camera action; takes little time to reproduce the image on my mac Book pro. Bright orange color is handy to locate it on the floor in studio. …. WT 5A might be better option.

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.
