The King Pro supports high-speed sync up to 1/8000th of a second with compatible speedlites and monolights.

Activate HSS through your camera or flash settings as required.

The King Pro includes a shutter release function. Connect a compatible USB cable from the King Pro to your camera's remote port. This allows for remote camera triggering, and it is possible to trigger multiple cameras simultaneously if properly configured with additional cables.

The King Pro transmitter features a TTL pass-through hot shoe on top. This allows you to mount an additional flash unit directly onto the transmitter, which can operate in either TTL or manual mode, while still controlling remote flashes wirelessly.
