Yes, some people get sync at 1/200, but I know more people that don\'t than do. Canon only guarantees 1/200 for on-camera Canon speedlights. The manual tells you to use 1/160 for strobes. If you\'re lucky and get 1/200, great. But thinking your camera is malfunctioning cuz you only get 1/160 for off camera lights is incorrect.
No, for on camera Canon speedlights, like 580 EX, you can use the highest shutter speed the camera has, say for 1D Maek II, III, 1/8000sec...
I\'m not talking High Speed Sync, I\'m talking regular sync. The original poster referred to the sync speed Canon advertises as 1/200th which is regular sync.
