The few times I've used HSS I was shooting portraits in very strong sunlight. HSS allowed for the higher shutter speeds needed for the wider apertures I wanted to use (e.g. f/2) so I could get shots with a very shallow depth of field. That same goal probably could have been achieved with a something like a four-stop ND filter, but the HSS option was there so I used it. How useful a feature it is, I think, depends greatly on what you shoot most often and how. For me it's just another tool in the bag.</blockquote>
