|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Pocket Wizard MiniTT1 -Hyper Sync Andrew Shurtleff, Photographer, Photo Editor Charlottesville | VA | United States | Posted: 8:53 AM on 12.23.10 ->> Does anyone have any information on Hyper Syncing the Canon Mark IV with arena strobes using the PW Mini TT1? I shoot with White Lightnings and was able to sync my 1Ds Mark III at 640th of a second. I can only sync my Mark IV at 320th of a second. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.

Basically the strobes have to be at full power, thus providing the longest flash duration. The PW then cheats by adjusting it's triggering to allow you to grab a bit of that light at a higher than allowed by camera shutter speed.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I've tried a variety of settings from -600 to -1200 using the PW Utility. I think a call to PW is in order or to Galbrith. Thanks for your input.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I was able to shoot up to 1/3200th of a second with the WL 1600 at full power. Pretty cool stuff.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
