[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 550636, member: 25095"] Yup, I believe the consumer bodies like the D3100 have both a slower max sync speed (1/200 vs 1/250) as well as lack High Speed Sync (the ability to shoot over the max sync speed). Your best bet with that camera body would be one of two things ... close down the aperture so that the resulting equivalent exposure results in a shutter speed that does work with flash, or use an ND filter to lower the exposure so that the shutter speed drops below 1/250. There are pros and cons to both methods, but they'll at least let you shoot with what you have. [/QUOTE]
