The colored gel domes are a bit weird in terms in trying to fit them into places. You might be able to fit two or three domes in this Pelican case where there's a void, but I honestly wouldn't recommend it. I keep all of the domes in the original cardboard shipping case they came in, and I have three sets. I use them ALL the time. Love them!
Hey, Mike, been checking all your videos on the Link. Great job! One question I have. In your original video about the Link, you were stoked about the HSS capability. Have you had the chance to test it? I wonder to what extent it retains power in HSS? Some strobes just lose 2-3stops.
Hi Rokas, thanks for your kind words. Yes! I bought the LINK primarily as a companion to my Einstein strobes primarily for the High Speed Sync feature. I've shot with the LINK at 1/8000 sec and f/1.4 without any issue. It's really nice how even if you have your the LINK set to "Color" or "Action" modes, once you set your camera anything higher than the standard sync of 1/200, the LINK will automatically go into HSS mode with the HUB remote. As for how much power is lost in HSS mode, that should depend on the shutter speed and F stop one uses when shooting, I believe. I'm not exactly sure, but maybe PCB can answer this officially as it's an excellent question, Rokas!
@@MikeMcGeePhotography Regarding the HSS, I mean, how much power is lost when you move from standart sync (lets say 1/160 or 1/200) to HSS (lets say 1/250). I have these old phottix indra strobes, that lose quite a bit of power even if you just move your toe into HSS territory. I've heard some newer Profoto strobes barely loses any power in HSS (can't verify that), so naturally I was wondering how does the link compare.
@@Apapukas It's an excellent question, but I don't really have an answer for that unfortunately. I believe power loss in any strobes HSS mode is also based on the shutter speed for example. For example, there can be more power loss going from 1/500 to 1/1000, etc. So it might be a variable, but unfortunately,. I don't have any numbers on that unfortunately. Sorry I can't assist more in that regard.
Hi Mike, Do you have a travel case recommendation a pair of the new Celestial strobes?
Looks like you can shove the Gel Caps in the extra space at the top.

@@MikeMcGeePhotography No worries, looking forward to more of your videos.
