I don't do much flash either, but i did do a portrait outdoors for the Director of a live theater non-profit last summer. It was a classic portrait with her illuminated by flash, and a shakespeare stage, illuminated by ambient, behind her. Worked out fine and she liked 3 of the versions I submitted. My impression was that modern digital processing software eliminates SOME of the need to get it right with flashes. Once the flash had established some contrast between ambient and flash, it was easy to deepen that shadow or lighten it with a few sliders in LIghtroom. So the sync speed had no practical impact on this shoot at all.
So i sympathize with the frequent flash shooters out there, but the K3 was quite a upgrade in all other areas. Hopefully, the next iteration will deal with the whole flash system in its entirety.
