I guess time will tell.And yes; Scantips.com is an invaluable resource if one needs to know anything aboutdigital photography/imaging. I'll be referring to this site's resources for FP mode(High Speed Sync)as soon as I mastered my D610. That's the reason why I picked up a YN568ex as well.I'm still unsure of how to approach shooting in FP mode; do I shoot manual or TTL?My assumption is that, the shooter wants to use a much faster shutter speedto dramatically tune down ambient light in order to get proper exposure of the subject ..This would meant shooting in manual then right? But my Sekonic L308s can't go anythingclose to that shutter speed ... HSS will have to go to the back burner for now.I'm in Australia (Arsx end of the earth; so they say !!) .. I'm lucky now that there is eBay where I get all my junk from;Most photog shops here deal with Bowen/Elinchrome gears only; And man, you pay through your nose for them.I've heard of Alienbees; due to lack of competitions here in theland of Kangaroos and Koalas; the importer here price them closely tothe Bowen/Elinchrome's alike. Once you add the tripod and modifiers to them .... time to take out a third mortgage.</blockquote>
