Cactus Wireless HHS Flash Transceiver V6 IIS - Sony
Cactus SKU: CACV6IIS | Helix SKU: CUCACV6IIS
Product Description
The Cactus V6 IIs is a wireless flash trigger dedicated for Sony camera and flash that supports HSS and can remote control power output and zoom angle of Sony system flashes. It can also triggers the Cactus V6 II, which makes the V6 IIs the World’s First Sony-supported wireless flash trigger that supports cross-brand high-speed sync (HSS) and control power output and zoom angle of Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic and Pentax system flashes all at the same time.*
Equipped with two (2) high-speed sync modes (Normal HSS and Power Sync), AF-assist, auto-detect camera and flash system, Multi-master, and remote control abilities of power and zoom, Cactus V6 IIs packs all that you need for your Sony system in a compact body with simplistic controls.
* With the exception of Sony system flashes due to special timing requirements so it must be paired with a Sony camera in order to support HSS.
