Wow! These are just beautiful! The GH5 looks to be a real winner.
I thought that the flash sync speed on the GH5 (and the Olympus E-M1 Mark II) were both limited to 1/250. I see that some of your photos in the gallery were shot at 1/400. How did you manage that? I've always hoped that the sync speed would be at least 1/325 or faster, but I was surprised when they limited it to 1/250. If you know of a way around this sync speed issue, I would love to hear how you did it. Thanks.

Hi Bogdan,
You are right , using the original Panasonic strobe DMW-FL70 the flash sync is limited to 1/250.
But i have purchased the Nauticam Mini Flash Trigger #26309 specific for the Gh5 Mini Flash Trigger for NA-GH5 Housing (manual exposure) - Nauticam
Using this Led Flash Trigger it is possible to overcome the sync limit of 1/250 and this is fantastic for the pictures against the sun.
Even the strobes seems to be more powerful using a timing faster than 1/250.
It was a good surprise

Bogdan i forgot to tell that this mini flash trigger Nauticam works ONLY with fiber optic cables MULTICORE and not with common and less expensive SINGLE core fiber optic cables
