    To freeze motion like the photographer is doing you also need strobes with high flash sync , and to be that powerful those must be some expensive lights.

    Absolutely not. You leave your shutter at 1/125 or 1/250 or whatever, use your other exposure triangle elements to black out the ambient, and your exposure time becomes your flash duration. “High speed sync” is much much slower and far worse at freezing motion than just shooting with traditional strobes.

        I will be freezing the ball with 1/10,000 second duration flash pulse from my QT1200 strobes, not with my shutter speed, same as this guy is doing, and my R3 will flash sync at 1/250 in EFCS mode. Using flash and then ALSO trying to use fast shutter speed is misunderstanding entirely what you’re doing.
