These are great and hopefully they'll get TTL HSS otherwise stuck with native flash sync.

 

Ordered a Cactus V6II to go with the RF60's last week. They support P-TTL HSS.

Shag, I definitely recommend Cactus RF's and the V6 Mk II HSS trigger.

 

Been an expensive week for flashes and modifiers.

 

1 No. Cactus V6II

3 No. Cactus EP-1 battery packs

1 No. Metz AF-1 64 flash

1 No. Lastolite Exybox Speed Lite II

1 No. Westcott soft silver 43" umbrella

1 No. Westcott 43" Apollo Orb

1 No. Westcott 45" Halo

2 No. Manfrotto 026 swivel clamps

1 No. JJC TTL Hot Shoe Adapter F Off-Camera Shoe Cord for Pentax

1 No. 50 year old vintage chrome camera flash grip

 

How cool is this?

Might get three more Cactus RF60's with EP-1's and another Westcott Triple Threat. But in 2017.

Just grab an old non TTL flash and use it in manual, if its too bright dial it down....

 

Get a roscolux gel sample pack for $7.50 shipping  and you have colours too http://www.rosco.com/sbreqs/

 

 

I need TTL HSS because the flash sync is only 1/200th of a second on the K-1 and with HSS I'm getting great results at 1/8000th of second!

 

Having TTL HSS available for off-camera flash adds a new dimension again.

 

Why save the money? Government's are printing money into oblivion.

Heres my lighting rig  £16 for the flash (scored a bargain)

 

About £2.50 for a bowl of Vietnamese Pho, cut lid with a stanley knife and used some old school non RoHS TV wrapping

 

I introduce to you the Gary Pho Lightsphere  :cheesy:

In all honesty MJP I would like a multi flash HSS setup, it will happen.

 

Could do with a 16 speedlight tree like Joe McNally

 

 

 

I'm three RF60's and another Triple Threat away from this!

 

 

Found what I was looking for. A Westcott Speedlite Progrip.
