    And 1/500s in APS-C crop mode, but you're not using an A7 camera, you're using an A1.

    The question was is the trigger that adds the delay or is it the camera. This can only be answered using a x-sycn or a flash on the hot shoe in manual that is not a trigger and comparing. If those work fine (and i think they do) than the trigger is the issue

    Am not really bothered. I made my decision already the Nauticam trigger does not support rear curtain and therefore is not fit for purpose

    The UWT TTL trigger is TTL and I do not need TTL, which also put the Turtle TTL out of the mix.

    From my point of view (I want a manual trigger) the Turtle is perfect and that is what i got 

    going back to the A7RV I am pretty confident that if you connect a sync cord to the camera it will fire at 1/250

    • Set the exposure mode to manual exposure (other than ISO AUTO is recommended for ISO sensitivity), and set the shutter speed to the slower of the following values or slower:
      • Flash sync speed
      • The shutter speed recommended by the flash.
      The flash sync speed is 1/250 seconds.

    If someone wants to go and try if sync speed improves other triggers it would be interesting from my point of view my system works as expected and the matter is closed

    I find surprising that Nauticam would be slower than other triggers but who knows
