Description: High speed sync (synchronisation) or HSS allows a flash to synchronise at very high shutter speeds, in some cases 12,000th of a second. Most flashes or strobe lights /strobelites and DSLR cameras have the possibility of these settings. By setting both flash and camera to HSS we can achieve some dramatic camera effects. For example we can make a flash dominate bright sunlight by underexposing the ambient light with fast shutter speeds. This gives a very dramatic effect on the subject .Low end or beginners flashes won't have this possibility nor will the lower end of dslr cameras. So the beginner photographer must look to the future when investing in equipment. It may not be what he wants at the moment as a beginner but as he learns more about photography, he will need better cameras and equipment so the beginner must choose wisely.
