It has been a long time since I have written anything about photography equipment which is funny since I still consider photography as one of my main hobbies.

Other additional support products include a battery and power injector to increase the signal strength even more making a much more reliable connection especially at the longer cable lengths.
TetherTools is a great place to purchase or learn more about this product and the options they suggest. In fact they have a whole line of products to support your camera to computer tethering needs. You can purchase product individually but they have a great kit with:
All for just $379.00, not to bad. You will need to add your own tripods though.
