• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Hey all

So I'm curious, does a maximum flash sync speed of 1/250th make much difference over 1/200?

I shoot macro with my MR-14EX at 1/200.
Total exposure = (Ambient Component) + (Flash component).
Faster sync speed allows you to pull down your ambient exposure component down. If your goal is to shoot at wider apertures and to drag down the ambient component then you'll want as fast sync speed as possible. If you are shooting at narrower apertures (e.g. macro with plenty of depth of field) then ambient contribution is most likely low in any case so I don't see a practical benefit.
