ELINCHROM QUADRA HIGH SPEED SYNC | BEHIND THE SCENES

ELINCHROM QUADRA / ELB 400 HIGH SPEED SYNC Using shutter speeds beyond the 1/250 mark is like finding the key to your jail cell in the dirty laundry. Seriously.. it does not get any better then this, and if I had a megaphone I would stand on roof tops and shout it out.. UPDATE.. visit my site for a full write up, and image post from this video with more details.. http://travisharris.com/elinchrom-quadra-high-speed-sync/ Until Elinchrom came out with the new HS heads for the ELB 400, and Quadra packs.. it was a rare occasion that I would reach into my camera bag, and pull out my 85mm 1.2, 50mm 1.2, or just be able to compress my shots at f/2.8. Now, all of that is a reality.. and I have been testing this for months. First, let me say and be totally honest, that no system is "perfect" and its all a give and take. I speak about this, and my thoughts in the video, specifically when thinking about another system such as the Profoto B1's. Second, let me say that in this video.. I am only using ONE HS head (main light) and that the second light (rim / separation) is in fact my old, trusty NON HS Ranger AS pack with a "A" head (the worst head for anything HS LOL). The reason I had to use this pack, was because my second Quadra pack was / is in for service.. and this was my only option for this shoot. Unbelievably.. I was able to force enough power out of that pack to actually get the results I wanted.. It was a hard day for that Ranger pack, as most all the shots for that were close to 1100ws (full power) to keep up.. but, man.. what a work horse! I can't wait for the new ELB 1200 to soon come! Enjoy the video, I give many tips, thoughts, and show you how I roll on my production style shoots here in Miami, FL.
