The black Tether Tools TetherPro USB 2.0 Type-A to 5-Pin Mini-USB Cable is 3′ long and has gold-plated connectors to provide consistent and reliable conductivity as well as corrosion resistance. The ends of this cable feature a standard USB Type-A male connector and the other side is outfitted with a 5-pin mini-B male plug, which is compatible with most digital cameras.
To deliver data at speeds up to 480 Mb/s, Tether Tools has equipped this cable with USB 2.0 technology. It sports a reinforced Ferrite core that filters out signal noise and reduces transmission errors. In addition, the full-lined shielding feature protects the signal against external interference.

Its perfect! the only issue I have with it is the insane prices these items sell for… but I did pay for it and I don’t regret it one bit. Get the JerkStopper with it and its the perfect combo.

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!

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

I bought this to add to my D300s in studio and it works great. I use this in conjunction with a MacBook Pro and Adobe Lightroom 4 for tethered shooting and it works great. No set-up needed, and transfers fast into Lightroom software.

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.

This gets the job done and works perfectly! I would recommend getting the extension with this because it can be a little short at times espectially when being creative and trying different angles. It is always better to have more then less. That is my only problem and that is the reason I gave it a 4 start. This product is great and you will not regret buying it but you might find yourself ordering and waiting for the extension to arrive. Also the jerkstopper is a must! I have stepped on the cord (because it was too short) many times and it has either been yanked out of the camera or my computer which I would rather not be damaged. I use this to shoot portraits and merchanise and this tether cord has made my life so much easier. It is worth every penny and you will not be disappointed. I shoot with a D600+D5100 and this tether cord fits both perfectly and functions beautifully. Highly recommend with additions

I’ve been shooting tethered in the studio so the client can get more immediate feedback on their poses, etc. This is a perfect solution.

Great for shooting tethered. Bright orange color makes it hard for my assistants to trip on.

The length of this cable works well for me, and I like the orange making it visible so as not to trip when shooting.

I love this cable! It’s the perfect length, not so short and so long, just about right. I use it for indoor shoots, tethering to the lap top or for a photo booth. Gave it 4 stars only due to it being a bit pricey and not getting like a bag to store it and travel.

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.

I have 2 of these cords—for my 2 Camrangers. They are perfect to connect Camranger to my Canons. Forget the Camranger bag with its clip—use that only for storage—-I stick my Camranger on a shoe-mount bracket and use this 1-foot cord to connect——JUST PERFECT. No dangling anything. NIce cord—price is right.

I have used this cable for several portrait shoots so far. At first I was using the USB cable which came with my Nikon D7000, but it was too short (3 feet). I purchased the Tether Tools cable for a longer reach. I gained something else unexpectedly: a more reliable connection. With the Nikon-supplied cable, I often had trouble getting my Macbook Pro + Lightroom combo to recognize that the camera was attached. I’d have to restart Lightroom and/or turn off/on the camera. I thought this was ‘normal’ behavior, until I started using the Tether Tools cable. I get a flawless connection every time with no fiddling. Well worth the money.
