   Want to use the A7ii with an elinchrom high-sync flash.

No problem, util... 
The shutterspeed is faster then 1/200: no flash trigger at all.

It works fine with the A99 and A99ii, flashes with 1/1000: No problem at all...

	Should work: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1521752 Do you have the latest firmware? (both flash and camera) The Elinchrom site mentions that you should "In Hi-Sync or HSS, disable “Silent Mode” on the camera." Silent mode is called "Silent shooting" ("stille opname") on Sony camera's.
