High speed sync, via one of the larger external speedlights like the HVL-43m or 60m. Same thing you can do with most Canikon speedlights. Really isn't too special to Sony.
HSS basically just strobes the flash really fast, greatly reduces the output, but does let you sync at faster speeds than the x-sync speed.
Cameras with a leaf shutter, like the Fuji X100, the Sony RX1, Sony RX100 et al., don't have this limitation and can sync the flash up to max shutter speed. Makes them very useful for being able to even overpower the sun, and/or shoot wide open with flash.
Otherwise, if your dealing with the pop-up flash, or smaller externals, your stuck at the x-sync, so that means you need to stop down to like f11 to shoot in the sun at 1/250th to keep the flash balanced with the ambient. ...Show more →
Ok, thanks for the explanation. I didn't realize it was HSS.
