Speedlight Studio Flash
June 22nd, 2009
Will a Nikon Speedlight, SB-600 or Sb-800 increase the Flash Sync Speed with a nikon D60 from 1/200s?
I have read that flash sync speed is usually up to 1/250s in most cameras. How do I then increase the shutter speed when using a flash or do you have to use studio lights etc for fast photography?
nope.
