Lens adaptors and HSS with Pottix Odin on A7

Hoping someone can help with what I assume is a question with a rather obvious answer....

Using HSS (high speed sync) with Current sony lenses seems fine, however as soon as I used an old Olympus (50mm 1.8), all I get is a black image. Not a black band, but the whole screen is black. As suggested by the subject title, I use the phottix odin trigger and receivers for Sony on my Sony A7.

I'm trying to do some indoor portrait work with a shallow depth of field and hence need the higher shutter speeds.

I am yet to try other legacy lenses (Minolta, Yashica and Leica), however have simply made the assumption (maybe stupidly) that I will have the same issue.

Appreciate any help that may be out there

 

Hi Kirkp

Doesn't seem to give me the option of turning HSS on, so I guess the answer is no.

I should add that I am using the flash on manual.

 

Thanks for the above Michelb. I thought this may be the case. Appreciate the link.
