tom_bowling1664874721 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hi, I wonder if any lighting experts know what I should expect here? The Godox/Wistra manual says I should expect 1/220 to 1/11300 seconds, the Nissan instruction brochure I have seems silent on the matter. The background is I want to freeze action in the studio and my studio lights are cheap (ie slow flash) Elinchroms. Camera is Leica so no HSS available. Thanks in advance.

rodeo_joe1 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 No experience with the Godox, but every recently-made hotshoe speedlight I've tested has a light decay curve similar to this one at full output. So just over 3 milliseconds duration to t 0.1 would be pretty typical. But only at full output. At half 'power' the light is cut off almost instantly at around 1.5 milliseconds (1/660th s) and proportionally faster for quarter-power, 1/8th etc. BTW Nissan make cars. I think you mean Nissin. Unless you're happy with a flash duration of 0 to 60 in 12 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
