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 3.0 cable that is equipped with a Type-A male connector on one end and a USB micro-B 10-pin male connector on the other side, making it compatible with external hard drives, memory card readers, and more. This USB 3.0 cable is 15′ long and transmits data at a rate of up to 5 Gb/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.

This is a solid cable. No issues and RAW files from my D810 transferred quickly to our 15 MacBook Pro. Be sure to have the latest firmware update on your camera before using. I would recommend the Jerkstopper to take the strain off the cable where it connects to the camera.

I use it to Tether in the studio. I don’t want to wait to get home to find out I don’t have sharp images.

Professional use. Strong and trust. More discount price.

Very durable and visible which helps in a studio environment. Much longer than the cables now shipped with new cameras. Pairs perfectly with the Jerk Stopper.

Ordered USB 3.0 Tether Tool cable for my Nikon cameras (D-850-D-810) during the Covid-19 quarantine. Delivery time was great under the circumstance. Began using it same day to download large files to a 1 T-byte SSD drive on my i7 laptop. Downloads were quick and the Tether Tool cable stayed had a snug and secure feeling when attached to either camera. Tried sending photos directly into Lightroom (9.2) and reasonable send to screen time. Cable worked well in other tether aware applications. Will buy one more to keep at two locations. Again, great product, great service.

It works very well.

it’s 15 feet length is necessary for studio work, and the angled connector is a great idea, less interference while hand holding.

Yes, the orange colour makes one look legit but until they have fixed those loose issues / click-lock hooks on the connector, please do yourself a favour and use the manufacturer’s cable. I got myself the 5m Canon cable and my assistants been saying I’m a much calmer person since.

What more can I say … it works perfectly from my Nikon D850 to my laptop so I can shoot teetered. The cable is plenty long enough and sturdy enough for use in my studio environment.

great product

I use this for tethered portraiture. It gives me enough length to set the computer midway between subject and camera allowing the subject to get nice feedback. The cable is fairy stiff and needs to be secured to the tripod. You can use a simple velcro strap for that or more expensive options.

Connects my D 800 to my computer, so i can see my photos full screen .

I shoot tethered for nearly all of my shoots and have used Tether Tools for years. Now I have a new cable and also an older Canon cable I can compare and find far less drop outs with the Canon cable. The new Tether Tools cable just does not fit as snuggly and as I am often shooting alone I find it extremely frustrating that the camera drops out when I use the TT cable.

This is just what the camera doctor ordered, works well it stays connected no issues Thank you very much, if needed I would recommend this product.

from MacPro5.1 to Seagate 5TB via USB3.1 transfer rates of over 200Mb/s. All thumbs up!!
Rolando Wilderman (verified owner) –
It’s been touch and go tethering with this and a 5dsr. Seems better than the other brand that I tried, but still not 100%. Signal seems to drop out here and there. Worth noting that many people consider this a problem with the computer having underpowered usb ports, so not completely sure I can peg this 100% on any single piece of kit.

I purchased this product to shoot tethered in the studio. The bright cord makes it easy to keep from tripping over and having an angled connection to the camera makes it easier to stay attached. So far it is perfect for what I need.
