The Sigma is fine with any of those domes. I suspect the Tamron will need the widest possible - so 8”. -

Waterpixel's FansOnly?

Yeah, I agree. I don't think I've ever turned down the HSS output. Usually it's shooting into the sun and you need as much power as possible to overcome the sunlight and illuminate something that's in the shady side.

Leave the rectilinear behind, use the FE and crop as necessary? That's my usual WA minimalist-gear approach for, eg, the Red Sea

Wasn't the Spinning Jenny invented in 1764 supposed to kill off the textile trade?

Hi Tim! Always good to have another Tim on board. Welcome to Waterpixels. We hope you enjoy the forum.

It's possible that it coincided with me deleting the .heics. Try reloading.....

Hey Lauren The .heic images that you have attached don't work and I'm going to delete the place holders. As Dave suggests, much better if you attach .jpgs. No-one really wants to have to download individual .heics even if they do work. Good luck with the sale.

I wouldn't necessarily rule that out. As Chris suggested, drop Pavel a PM and explain the issue. He's really helpful.

I don't know how complicated it would be to enable TTL with HSS but I do wonder why you would bother. Manual exposure with strobes isn't difficult - far from it - and using HSS doesn't make a great deal of difference, if any.

Hey Chip Sounds like you don't have that dark band issue that Nemrod is getting? Tim

Hi Wiggy Nice to have another Brit resident on board. You've come to the right place for advice - and for help emptying your bank account. Good to have you with us. A warm welcome.

Here we go again.... it didn't go well the first time! 🤣 Great to have you with us, Martin. A warm welcome to Waterpixels!

That’s a good question. I didn’t like using one close-up lens with a flip holder. It felt in the way. Two???

Congrats, Tino. Yep, do let us know how you get on with them.

Hi Nemrod I'm no camera sync expert - Pavel is The Man (the UWT Man) - and I'm sure will chip-in. Agreed on not kitchen table-testing, but if you have a bath or even a decent size sink or tub you can fill with water, you can always try the strobes in that. That said, if you are getting that dark band above 1/500 that does sound like a sync issue. I can fire at 1/2000 with HSS and have no problem. Pavel?

Great to have you with us, Lyle. A warm welcome to Waterpixels.

Yes, I have a UWT board and use HSS quite a lot but with Retra strobes. The HSS setting is indeed Manual but that’s a setting on the strobe not the UWT board. The board needs to be set on whatever the correct setting is for Marelux. You then use the strobe controls to select HSS.

Congrats, Gudge! Cracking image!!

Couldn't agree more.
