I have a Sony camera with the older iISO hotshoe and want to use a Godox TT350 speedlight. If I mount it with a JJC MSA-10 style adapter that converts the iISO shoe to a standard ISO shoe, can I get high-speed sync in manual mode, or does HSS require a different type of adapter?

No. That adapter won't work for HSS. That adapts the iISO hotshoe to an ISO "universal" hotshoe, but that only communicates the sync (fire) signal, not the full hotshoe communication protocol.

What you need to get HSS/TTL with a Godox speedlight is an iISO to multi-interface hotshoe adapter, like a Vello HSA-CSASM.

No. A simple iISO-to-ISO hotshoe adapter like the JJC MSA-10 only passes the basic sync/fire signal. That is enough to trigger a flash, but not enough for high-speed sync or TTL, which require the camera and flash to exchange additional hotshoe communication signals.

If you want HSS with a Godox speedlight on a Sony body that uses the older iISO shoe, you need an adapter that preserves Sony’s full hotshoe communication protocol—specifically an iISO-to-Multi Interface Shoe adapter made for TTL/HSS support. A basic “universal” hotshoe adapter will not provide HSS, even if the flash itself supports it.
