For studio sessions that don't allow a great amount of time with a subject, the ability to group a handful of lights in different configurations can save lots of time and allow for flexibility of looks. For example, the Buff Cybersync allows you to have 16 lights on a singular frequency, and group them into 8 different configurations that allow individual lights to be in multiple groups. And, to extend the idea, the ability to cycle through a specified set of groups rapidly (speedcycler) would allow a fast way to get multiple looks from a single pose by your subject (for the shoots when you only have a few minutes, and you need to get everything you can).
hi team, we have 4 of the a1/ a1x/ a10 on camera flashes and all of them have broken because of the plastic plate that holds it on to the hot shoe. competitors have all switched to the metal. we have to pay $150 way too often to repair it (on top of the 3x price), so this change would be welcome. thanks in advance.
