Originally posted by Kmaphotog I have the cactus 6vII, x1tc and AD200 with a 645Z. It will not work in HSS or over 1/125. SO from what I am reading if I use the cactus and the XT16 system I will be able to shoot above 1/125. has anyone verifyied this?
I am currently using a Profoto B1 with the Cactus on the 645 with good resoults in HSS. just would like a lighter light. Thanks in advance
Hello, I can tell you what worked for me. I tested wit with K5 & K3II. You have a 645 and it seems your Cactus v6II is able to get the HSS signal.
To get HSS with the AD200 & V6II you can check the next combinations:
* put a general trigger on top of your cactus v6ii, and the corresponding receiver connected to the AD200's sync port. Disable wireless mode and enable HSS on the AD200. HSS should work.
* put a FT16 on top of your cactus, then put a FTR16 on the AD200's usb port, disable wireless mode and enable HSS.
* put a XT16/XT32 on top of your cactus, and (important), a XTr16 receiver on the usb port, disable wireless mode and enable HSS. It should work with your X1Tc too, but I coulnd't test it
The problem is that HSS doesn't work if you use the wireless mode and the AD200's internal receiver. I know, it doesn't make sense but...
I hope this info be useful.
Regards.
Forget to add: on the cactus v6II, I configure the flash as manual, and HSS as 'powersync'.
