[QUOTE="LouCioccio, post: 383347, member: 12542"] If you are unable to use HSS you could invest in a Light Meter that does both ambient and flash like a Sekonic L358. It can take the ambient plus flash; move the jog wheel to get 30% flash. If you do it enough times plus whatever modifier you are using and power setting of the flash (manual power) you can nail a decent image. Although not taken with a Nikon this is what 30% flash looks like; the higher the percentage the background becomes darker. Since the the flash is limited by the sync speed it would be in open shade. As AROY mentioned the MF usually have what is called Leaf Shutter (shutter in the lens not the body) can sync at much higher shutter speeds.
