Are there a standard shutter speed for studio? I mean any recommended range of shutter speed? Or it does vary as the iso and apperture does?
Thank you!

As other have already mentioned, unless you are mixing the ambient light with the flash strobe you should shoot at max sync speed http://flickr.com/photos/eduardofrances/

The sync 1/250th and 1/200th speed mentioned is for speedlites, which is different.

Take a shot without firing the strobes. If this results in a black image, then you know that when you turn the light on, they will be contributing 100% of the overall exposure.

Be careful is trying faster speeds as you may begin to see a hint of shutter curtain by 1/200s. It will vary depending on the camera and strobes used. Robert
