p.1 #1 · Please confirm super high speed sync


I woke up thinking why hasn't this been posted before?

I used my canon 580ex II in high speed sync to trigger my strobes via wein slaves built on my dynalites. I turned the power on my 580 all the way down to conserve power so i could cycle as fast as my strobes and WOW it worked fully sync all the way down to 1/8000th NO BLACK LINE from shutter and should be achievable with any one's current setup.

It is that simple.

What do you think it's alot cheaper than 4 prophoto 2400ws 7a's and 6 pro heads say $30,000 bucks cheaper.

Would love to see our community benifit from this. HOpe this works for someone else out there.

And yes I am an amateur have never gotten paid for a photo yet.

Only a fool goes looking for the answer he wants to hear.
The more knowledge a wise man obtains the more questions he has.

I'd be very interested in seeing your examples and EXIF info showing how your Dynalites (or any non-thyristor studio strobe) produces a full exposure at 1/8000th on a 5D MKII or any other camera with a focal plane shutter or CMOS chip?

yes but it's so exciting

So how are you using this configuration and what practical benefit does it provide?
Always looking for a cheaper alternative to the little blue pill.

BTW, your DPR link is truncated.
