The Flashpoint Zoom R2 Mini Flash with Integrated R2 Radio Transceiver for Nikon represents a significant new version breakthrough in speedlight power technology with the introduction of full R2 Remote connectivity and interaction with all strobe functions. This unique design balances the tradition of compact cameras, ease of use, with stunning light performance. From connectivity with other R2 family of flashes, group control, Slave and Master options, power levels to Exposure Compensation (FEC), FV Lock, High Speed Sync, and an automatically zooming flashhead, all the way to complete manual control and advanced flash functions, the Zoom Mini flash takes you as far as you want to go, with an appreciation of Sony mirrorless cameras. Recycle times are from approximately 0.1 – 2.2 seconds, and provide up to 210 full power pops per 2 AA alkaline battery set.
Besides TTL and manual control, there are 2 optical slave modes, and a stroboscopic mode as well. Remote power control using a Flashpoint R2 System Transmitter or R2 Family flash allows you to view and change your flash output as you shoot as well as trigger the flash and adjust other functions from more than 200 feet away, for extreme off camera work. The Zoom Mini Flash has a USB port for firmware updates, available from the Flashpoint Firmware updates for Flashpoint R1 and R2 products, and are available here: here.
The simple layout and familiar controls make using this flash intuitive. The flashhead rotates 180 degrees in any direction and tilts over 90 degrees for any type of bounce or modifier use. The head zooms automatically or manually from 24-105mm, to ensure the necessary coverage without wasted spill. The built-in pull out wide angle diffuser spreads light evenly for use with lenses wider than 24mm to 14mm.
This AA powered flash is sure to become a pivotal part of your photography equipment lineup.
The R2 TTL Wireless Flash System is the advanced 2.4GHz radio remote that adds camera TTL dedicated custom functions to your multi flash experience. Easy to use buttons command a full range of functions like reliable channel triggering, group mode selectivity, HSS, with powerful signal strength and exceptional stability to your selected camera flash language. LED panels clearly display the status of all remote R2 compliant strobes so you always have control of group lighting mastery. R2 wireless communication gives speed of light response to on camera or off camera R2 family devices for a spectacular advantage on the shoot in any environment.
The key component that makes this new flash stand apart from others is the proprietary TTL and HSS enabled 2.4GHz R2 Radio Remote System radio triggers transmits atop a camera body with the essential TTL pass-through and laser AF assist and works with the complete family of Flashpoint Speedlights, Monolights and Strobe lights with R2 TTL radio transceiver built right in.
