Just set up my first strobes. Using an XSI with pocketwizards. I keep getting a dark bottom edge (or right edge in portrait). Shooting at 1/250. Is this the shutter? How do I get rid of it. Complete newb! Thanks.

The max sync of an XSI is 1/200. You may even get a tiny bit of the shutter at 1/200 with radio triggers. The only way to not get it is to set a slower shutter speed. ;)

And welcome to POTN!!!!
