Setting the HyperSync Offset in the PocketWizard Utility

HyperSync

& High Speed Sync (FP Flash)

HyperSync allows for a PocketWizard

connected ash to begin ring just

*before* the camera triggers a sync

pulse. Since you are triggering “faster

than a wire” with HyperSync, you can

sync at shutter speeds faster than

X-sync for many cameras and get more usable ash energy before Auto FP (High Speed Sync) is activated.

Adjusting HyperSync is done in the PocketWizard Utility (see next page for adjustment suggestions). Proper

adjustment is dependent on on your equipment’s abilities. Try the default setting and look for clipping

(black lines in your images). Adjust up or down as needed to eliminate the black lines. It is not always

possible to eliminate the black lines as the shutter speed increases.

HyperSync is used with shutter speeds as follows:

1/200 and slower HyperSync not used

1/250 through 1/350 Auto-calculated HyperSync offset used

1/400 Full HyperSync offset used

1/500 Auto-calculated HyperSync offset used

1/640 and faster FP Flash / High Speed Sync engaged

NOTE: If you have a ash in the shoe of the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on your camera, it must be set to

High Speed Sync (FP Flash). If not, the camera will be limited to a 1/200 shutter speed and will not use

HyperSync timings. If there is no ash in the shoe of MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on your camera, HyperSync

and High Speed Sync will be used automatically with your remote ashes.
