I'm working on an EOS flash document and have a goofy flash-related question.
I know that a symptom of exceeding the X-sync of your camera when
using flash can be a darkened bar that runs the width of the image -
the flash isn't able to expose fully the image area when the shutter
gap is reduced to a narrow slit formed by the two curtains.
However, I've had such bars appear on photos taken with my EOS gear.
How is this possible? My EOS cameras (an Elan and a 10s; neither of
which support FP flash) don't let me exceed the X-sync shutter speed
when flash is turned on.
Any ideas? Am I missing something obvious? I'm using a 430EZ flash,
so it's not something to do with a studio strobe.
