High speed sync TTL flash?

Hi are there any TTL flashes that can do high speed sync? I know the pentax 360 and 540 can but they are too expensive. Im going to buy an used ist ds to use with the good old TTL so an used TTL flash with HSS would be nice. Are there any flashes that can do that?

I believe HSS is a P-TTL feature, it did not exist in the old TTL system.

I believe this is accurate. Investigate using ND filters as an option.

That's true.

In this case, I don't know any TTL pentax flash that have HSS.
