Ive seen midday pictures using the einstein at full power that are balancing the sky light or even darkening it. Shane

Correct me if I'm wrong

Correct me if I'm wrong Well, that would be true except you're overcoming the "closing down" by putting the ND filter on the lens. Shane

Feb 28, 2012 11:11 | #8 I'm trying to decide between a set of triggers that allow HSS with strobes or a couple of ND filters. What are the pros and cons of each?

What are the pros and cons of each? The cons of HSS is the loss of power from your flash in HSS mode. If you are using modifiers that eats even more light. So you may have to have multiple speedlites very close to the subject to get what you want. With the strobes you can use larger modifiers and work at normal distances with the flashes. Focusing and composing can be a pain if you are going way deep with an ND filter.

Most often this technique is used to compete with, if not overpower, midday light. In order to balance that a speedlite would be challenged.

What are the pros and cons of each? There is no such thing as HSS with strobes. There is PockeWizard's "hypersync" technology which basically fires the strobe early. It has significant limitations that depend on shutter design and the flash duration. "If you're not having fun, your pictures will reflect that." - Joe McNally
