Digital Tip of the Week

Test Your Camera's Flash Sync Speed. Today's digital cameras are boasting some pretty fast sync speeds, some as high as 1/250 of a sec. But it is a good idea to actually test how accurate that sync speed is. For example, I have found my Canon 5D performs better and gives me more consistent exposure results when I shoot at a sync speed of 1/160 of a second, rather than the manufacturers 1/200 rated sync speed. Test your camera to insure you are getting the best possible performance.
