Hello everyone! New to HSS and I suspect I may have problems out of the gate.
The gear in question: D750
SB 910
SB 900
Photixx Strato ii Phottix Strato II Multi 5-in-1 Wireless Trigger Trigger/Recievers
First experiment: Go into D750 and set HSS to highest (250) setting. Put 910 on camera and give it a shot. Easy! HSS works. However, I notice I've got terrible lag now between shots. Is that normal or is there a way to eliminate that lag?
Now, put 910 on reciever and put trigger on camera: HSS is gone. Here's what I don't get:
The camera's highest HSS setting says 250 (which to my mind is what normal Sync is supposed to be) but this is the setting for HSS, so there's a confusion there.
Shrugging it off and rolling with it, my Transmitter/Receiver units claim to do Sync of 250. Considering this is what the camera is set to, should be good to go, right?
No, HSS is gone and I have to set my shutter to 250.
So, either I've done something wrong or the T/R is incompatible with HSS.
What are my options, here? Should I get another speedlight and use it as a commander? I hate to have something that huge on top of the camera.
Should I get a new trigger/receiver system?
Should I connect to my 910 off-camera via cable and use *it* as a commander for the 900? Does the 900 even do HSS? (I can check that myself, I suppose)
Thanks for reading and any advice/clarification.
