Prirolite has introduced a new 500ws battery powered monolight with HSS for Pentax 645z and K-1. The design is much smaller than previous Priolite monolights. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/priolite/priolite-ultra-1-8000th-flash-sync-compact-li-ion http://flashhavoc.com/priolite-ultra/

That's a great price through the kickstarter!

Yes- $800 for the light is a good deal. I wonder how heavy it is. I no longer use my Baja B4 on location because of its weight. I use a Quadra head with a Elinchrom ELB400 Pack. The head weighs less and is smaller than my Metz 52-AF1 speed light. If you have to have HSS (or Hi-sync) as Priolite calls it then the Ultra seems like the best option now. The Elinchrom unit has HSS for Nikon, Canon, and now Sony but not Pentax. Oh well.
