thanks. for me the question was if i should go for p-ttl flashes for studio work (with monohead blocks) to speed up a bit the sync speed and what are the possibilities. if there are serious technical restrictions regarding this issue (in case of non-hss compatible studio strobes) the sync speed remains below 1/200
in my case.... and i will buy ttl flashes to complement the existing strobes.
philbaum.... You can use up to 1/180s depending on which exposure steps you select, 1/2 or 1/3s. -thanks. i changed from 1/160 to 1/180.
but...
tuco says : If you are in a studio environment with these strobes, your effective shutter speed is the speed of the flash burst and not the camera if the ambient light does not contribute to the exposure.
-> i just wonder if is it worth it to experience with this limitations? the flash burst duration and the shutter speed. to do that i should be able to communicate with the studio strobes beyond 1/180s speed and in this case i need a p-ttl flash unit. well?
thanks a lot. piskota
