The K200d can do HSS with an external flash. I would have to look up the flash unit but if it can do it mounted on the shoe then yes. The problem is the Cybersync wireless units. AFAIK there is no wireless trigger that can to P-TTL and to do HHS you have to do P-TTL.

Hey there...

got a K200D and Metz48, simple answer is Yes it will Sync over 1/180 IF the flash is in the camera's hotshoe but no it wont HSS if you have it off camera. over 1/180 the camera will not send out a pluse to the hotshoe, I've got the poverty Wizzards and the signal indicator light won't go on if the shutter is over 180 or 1/160 really for the K200, the only wany that you can have it HSS off camera is via a P-TTL cable.

hope this helps...

Have a good one!!
Ben!
