>... I'm sort of used to 1/60th being the flash sync speed so I stupidly thought 1/200 was High Speed Sync. LOL. I found a good explanation of HSS online.
Yeah, sync speeds have gone up since film days. :) Mostly, HSS is useful if you want to do thin DoF with daytime fill flash, or if you need to freeze fast action without being able to kill the ambient. The former you can still do with ND filters, but the latter really requires HSS.
>I was hoping I could have the receiver on camera rather than having it dangling it's weight from the connecting cord. But I secured it to the tripod using a couple Velcro cinch straps to take the weight of the receiver off of the triggering cable and hence the camera's shutter port.
Ball bungees can be useful for this, too. :)
>I did a shot prior to changing the XPro and flashes to another channel, but everything seemed to work with all 5 units set to channel 1.
I'm surprised. Usually there needs to be a small delay between the shutter remote working and the flash going off. If everything triggers at the same time, due to propagation, there's usually a sync issue. But if it's working, then it's working.
[re: wide angle diffusion panel]
>DOH! Thank you! I didn't realize it was an "active" panel. It was just slightly out, so pushing it in fully solved the problem.
We've all been there. That's how we know what the problem is. :D Your turn to help the next newbie.
>Now I just have to find the second little hotshoe stand. LOL.
Just in case, replacements aren't hard to find.
>Thank you,
You're welcome!
