Twenty Five Hundredths of a Second

"Talking 'bout I need a philly before I get loose. Poor excuse, money please, I get loose off of orange juice." - Phony Rappers : A Tribe Called Quest

 

This afternoon after making sure the girls were taking their nap I decided to experiment more with HSS shooting. Instead of ganging a bunch of speedlites together I decided to spread them out a bit further out.

 

I pointed the on camera flash forward and arranged the various speedlites around making sure that the receiver had line of sight of the main flash. Thing is I can't have the flash to far from me, not only because of triggering issues but because when shooting at HSS the output of the flash is severely reduced.

 

I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm really tempted in getting a set of RadioPopper Px.

 

Strobist info: 550EX 1/1 camera left, 580EX II 1/1 camera right, 430EX 1/1 far camera right. Triggered via 580EX II on camera

Camera info: Canon EOS 1D Mark III | EF 16-35mm ƒ/2.8L USM | 1/2500 ƒ/2.8 ISO100
