[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 152517, member: 12496"] No, lack of HSS will NOT hinder anything in the studio. HSS would more likely hinder normal studio operation. HSS is mainly useful when you just gotta use f/2.8 in bright sun wit flash (but it limits the flash power and distance range). See [URL="http://www.scantips.com/lights/flashbasics2b.html"]Four Flash Photography Basics we must know - Auto FP and HSS[/URL] In a studio situation, you are probably trying to limit effect of the orange incandescent ambient. You do use shutter speed near maximum sync speed to accomplish that. Lets say f/8 at 1/200 second, at low ISO, just for example. You use enough flash you can do this, but if you take the studio shot with all flashes turned off, you get a black frame, proving successful elimination of the ambient light. Then, in that setting, the speedlight (called a speedlight) is very fast, much faster than any shutter speed (the shutter speed is seeing the black ambient), so no more speed is necessary.
