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.

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.

I’d give this a 5 star but the first one I received was bad. It didn’t communicate with my 5D Mk II tethered to LR-5. I called B&H customer service and they quickly determined it was a bad one. Right away they emailed me the warranty papers and sent it back. While waiting for the replacement, I taped two cheap USB cable together to make 10 feet tether. It works, but I still prefer this high quality orange USB from tethered tools.

Excellent help at the time of the sessions. I hope I can always count on a B7H for the necessary support at the time of the work. Tether tool is very efficient and important, even more not found, it is not a B7H, it is a great tool working!

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.

We use this Tether cable for in-studio work. We really like the bright orange cable as it catches the eye and helps avoid us from stepping or tripping over it. The negative, is that it falls out of the camera side jack all the time, even if you have the Jerk Stopper the cable kept coming out of the jack on the camera. We ended up using gaper’s tape to hold the cable in the camera.

No issues with tether. I use lightroom. Worked great. No complaints, reasonable price, nice long cord.

For studio work, this is a great addition. Reviewing images in real time on a 17 screen versus the camera LCD has made a huge difference in my work. 15′ is plenty for me. The bright orange keeps me aware of its presence.

Works as expected. Love it for studio work. Did a shoot at my son’s house and forgot it at home, made me realize how much I actually like using this cable

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.

I used this shooting a Nikon D7000 in an all day photo shoot. It worked all day with no problems. The orange color made it visible against the dark flooring.

I didn’t think I needed this, until I realized the number of times I walked around in the studio with my camera tethered and accidentally pulled out the USB cable I used or stepped on it. This item is bright orange so you always see it and can always find it.

Tether capture gives you the most control over all your photography. Why? Because tethering allows you to see your photos moments after you take the picture. In studio or on location, you can instantly manipulate your lighting conditions to your needs. No need to take hundreds of photos for nothing. No more wasting time. This tether cable has given me a faster, consistent workflow.

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.
