Hey and thanks for stoping by. If you are reading this you probably fall in to 2 categories but regardless as to why, I am glad to have you. I mad a quick Youtube video today and thought I would write down my thoughts and the process to shoot your Canon Eos RP in High Speed Synch. I will assume that if you have found this via a Google search that you already know what HSS is but just in case, it basically is the process of shooting your camera with flash OVER the factory flash sync shutter speed. On the Eos RP this is 1/180 of a second. So that means, anytime I shoot flash I have to shoot at ISO 100 ( depending on the ambient light I want to allow ), a shutter speed as the above mentioned 1/180th of a second, which leaves my aperture around F9-F11. I don’t mind this generally, as a sharp image makes me very happy. Often though, I prefer that dreamy out of focus area behind my subject, thus needing to shoot a faster shutter speed, and smaller aperture. I use the Canon 35L series lens that opens up to F1.4 and sometimes I just want to shoot wide open. That means my shutter speed needs to be much faster, say 1/1000th of a second for example. In the video below I show you exactly how to get your EOS RP to shoot HSS as it will not from factory. I hope this helps and please feel free to share this with anyone you think might be interested or find this information of value. Thats all for today, but I hope you find joy in whatever your doing while reading this.
