Any ranger users out there? I just ordered the kit with 2 A Flash heads. AM getting some light modifiers also. What type of sync speed are people pulling with a 1D and either the Elinchrome Skyports of PW's?

1/3 stop under sync speed with Skyports, sync speed with YN622c. But that's with 40D, 7D, 5DII and 5DIII.

I had ranger rx as with two a heads and max sync speed was 1/250 with pw and skyport. With s heads and pw tt5 I can sync up to 1/8000. I use 1D mk4

Interesting. Can you show some samples of 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000 and 1/8000?

ive got old samples with my 1Ds3 below (clean all the way to 1/8000, no clipping), although the 5D3 cannot do the same (clean to 1/2000 only then bottom clipping all the way to 1/8000)
