Hi all
I want/need to tether my KM. I haven't yet downloaded the program cause I cant get a cord long enough. I seem to have a lot of conflicting advice.
I want to put the KM on a pole ( which I have already and use with reasonable success ).
The pole max height is 3.6 metres. I rarely use it at that height but may need to so would like to leave that option open. I am also working outside using only the battery on the laptop for power. ( no electricity )
So I need the usb connection from the camera to the laptop.......but what precisely do I need? Some say it must be self powered ( the cord ) others say it just wont work at that length, some say I cant cobble extensions together to get the length I need, some say I can. The local computer shop has no idea
....
So can anyone explain in laymen's terms what I DO need?
cheers
Jan
