Setting up HSS with Canon 6D

Cat

Hiya,

I have a forest shoot tomorrow and would really like to use hss with off camera flash for this. (I usually only use this in the studio).  I have tried everything to get it set up but it just isn't working! Please could you advise how I go about doing this? Many thanks

Antonio

Hello @Cat

Sorry for the delayed in replying.

Are you using the Cactus V6 II as a trigger? If so your RF60 needs to update to the latest firmware version.

Thank you and I look forward to your updates.

I have a cactus V6 and RF60, but it is not working the HSS.

How i can do it?

I need to use in sun day

The V6 does not support HSS and never will. It lacks the necessary hardware.

The only options are workarounds. You can use

1. optical triggering of a V6 transmitter (in conjunction with a system flash that supports HSS), or
2. the "starter pistol approach" I once came up with.

The only way is to get the V6 II.

Or get a leaf shutter camera such as the Fujifilm X100, Sony RX1, Ricoh GR...
