If you shoot photography professionally, you know the importance of having a reliable and efficient tethering system. A high-quality tethering cable can make all the difference when it comes to transferring images from camera to computer. That’s why Tether Tools developed TetherPro Cables, to be the best in the industry. In this article, we’ll explore the superior build that makes TetherPro Cables the trusted source over generic cables while discussing the benefits of using TetherPro Cables for your tethered shooting needs.
Cable Quality
The first thing to consider when selecting a tethering cable is the quality of the cable itself. TetherPro Cables are made with high-quality materials and are built to last. The cables are thicker than the cable that comes with your camera. The reason for the added thickness is the increased insulation. The added insulation provides extra protection to the stranded copper wires that transmit the signal and data from your camera to your computer. In other words, it stands up better to kinks, knots, carts, and people stepping on your cable, and it provides greater shielding on the wires itself – preventing signal interference or noise in the transmission.
Generic providers are able to make and sell cables cheaply by hitting the minimum required specifications for a cable. The TetherPro Cables are designed specifically to the highest spec possible for that particular cable and connection.
Cable Speed
The speed of transferring images from your camera to your computer is crucial, especially when shooting in a time-sensitive environment. TetherPro Cables are designed to deliver the fastest possible transfer speeds, ensuring that your workflow remains smooth and efficient. Tether Tools cables have a transfer rate of 5Gbps. This means that you can transfer large files quickly and easily without worrying about delays or interruptions.
Connectivity & Reliability
TetherPro Cables are compatible with all cameras supported by tethering software, including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm ,and Panasonic to name a few. They are also compatible with all major operating systems, including Windows and Mac. This makes it easy to find a cable that works with your camera and computer, no matter what gear you work with.
When shooting tethered, reliability is key. You need to be confident that your cables will work every time, without fail. Each TetherPro Cable model is built to the very highest USB Specs (as governed by USB.org) to be extremely reliable, with high-quality casings and construction to ensure consistent performance.
Customer Service & Selecting the Right Cable
When selecting the right cable for your setup, it’s important to consider your camera model, computer type, and the length of cable you need. The Tether Tools Cable Finder makes it easy to find the right cable for your needs. Simply enter your camera model, computer type, and cable length, and the Cable Finder will provide you with a list of compatible cables.
