Originally posted by Deiberson I've been using Cactus triggers with my Sigma 530, AF360 and Yongnugo 460 flashes. I've been getting some banding at 160th. Specifically with the Sigma How would I verify what product is causing the issue? I would expect intermittent results @ 1/180th but not 160th. 125 is solid all around but that sucks having to drop that low when the competition is shooting 1/500th.
who is at 1/500, the only shutters I know with this sync speed are iris shutters?
but note that anything you put in series with the flash trigger will add a delay, and since that delay may be both to the trigger as well as shut off, then it is easy to see it slipping back in time from the full open situation.
Also note thaty on the K10D and K20D with the AF540FGZ the flash duration exceeds the full open time at max power already.
You need to look at the flash duration not only the guide number.
