Here is a video from Ellis Vener (Tech Editor of Professional Photographers of America magazine.)

Paul, can this be achieved when powering the Einstein on the Vagabond as well? Very impressive either way.

At the power used (20Ws) there should not be any issues getting this frame rate with a sufficiently charged Vagabond.

Using a single Einstein on Vagabond II the cycle rates will be slightly longer than from power line, but you will still be able to do motor drive rates at either slightly lower power or lower fps.

That's freakin' awesome !!

AB.

Good Lord! :shock:

One poster on another forum said "But it's only at 20WS". Einstein will do 8fps at 40-50WS until you fill your camera buffer,or 5fps at 80WS. 50WS is approximately the same power as a speedlight at full power. Coupled with PLM or Retro Laser™ 40WS can give you some serious exposure levels, particularly at ISO200 or even 400.

It's fantastic to see it! Awesome!! :o

Paul, I noticed that when taking the shot, Ellis was pressing the test button (I assumed) on the CC that sit on top of his camera throughout the sequence, why is that?

It was not on the test button, it looked too low. I have not seen any mention as to why his hands were where they were.

Ok, if it's not the test button. But can CC sitting on the flash shoe can be used as Einstein trigger?

Does it mean that we do not need CyberSync as trigger and only need Einstein & CC to trigger it?
