A beast of a strobe that will run forever.

I have been using three of these for over ten years. They still work as well as when I bought them, same flash bulb, I easily have 5,000 pops on each of the three I own. This goes the same for the 900watt and 1200 watt versions. These are older, so no remote setting, but you can still sync with single pin remotes and slaves plugged into the 1/4 sync jack.

Powerful but heavy. AC/DC< works anywhere.

This light has the power I need for outdoor portraits. It is adjustable so it would work anywhere. It is heavy, but if you need lots of power, this light is awesome! You will need a heavy duty stand for this light.

What a great light

I was super excited to get this light kit as much of the photography that i do is on location and needed a reliable setup. I started with a few speed lites and am currently transitioning to these bigger lights that are capable of HSS this is sure a bang for the buck

The perfect strobe.

Perfect! I take it with me to all my shoots. Simple to use and the battery lasts forever. It's well built and very sturdy. This flash can last forever.

Bulb has burnt out twice in two years. If it's used a lot (a big shoot with lots of customers like a prom) it overheats and won't work until it cools. Otherwise it's great - lot more power than the Flashpoint 320M.

Great second light! Awesome for the price.

This is a great light if you are ok with adjusting it locally on the back of the light. Power adjustment can not be controlled by a transmitter

FP 1220W and two FP 600W

Hi I bought one FP 1220W and two FP 600W for my studio. They are working well without anyflaw until now. I love them very much. I intend to buyFlashpoint R2 Pro MarkII 2.4GHz Transmitter for Nikon and its receivers for using up for 01 Nikon flash SB-900 and two Nikon SB-910 and two Metzs 48-AF for Nikon & Metz 58-AF for Nikon plus Yongnuo YN565EX for Nikon because those flashes should work together with Flashpoint R2 Pro MarkII 2.4GHz Transmitter for Nikon and its receiver as both designed for Nikon and my purpose is use many source of lights as much as I can, such as hair light, trim light, even supply more lighting up for group people because Flashpoint R2 Pro MarkII 2.4GHz Transmitter for Nikon have cable connecting between one FP 1220W and two FP 600W with FP receivers. I do not buy Flashpoint R2 Pro MarkII 2.4GHz Transmitter for Nikon yet but my friend bought Godox X Pro N and its receiver had tested on all my own flashes worked well. They work well together as fas as Godox X ProN and Flashpoint R2 Pro MarkII 2.4GHz Transmitter for Nikon both desinged for Nikon. My friend bought his own but I like Flashpoinnt than Godox. I just tell what I knew

Great light for the price

These are very versatile lights. The ability to use ac or the battery has been a life saver when running cords isn’t an option. Very reliable for a low priced strobe.

The Flashpoint 620M is all that......and more!!

I normally shoot with ProFoto TTL flashes and decided I wanted a monolight for more power and versatility. I decided to try the Flashpoint 620M after reading a lot of other reviewers state how much they liked this model. I only wanted/needed a 300 watt model but decided on the versatility of AC/DC. I have been completely satisfied with this unit and quite frankly somewhat surprised on how much value you get in this model! I highly recommend it!

320M strobe, good, but needs a standard mount.

Drawback is the goofy flashpoint mount. Decent studio strobe, adjustable, good consistency in light color.

UNLIMITED POWER!!!

This unit packs a lot of power for the price with good build quality and power consistency. Color variation might be less than perfect compared to premium European brands.

Was good a few years ago, now not so much.

I bought one of these a few years ago as my first battery strobe. It's not bad so much as the rest of the market is so much better now. The analog power control isn't very accurate, nor does it give you the range of power the new units do. I used a light meter to add true power index marks to the back and even then it's not repeatable to any fine degree. It has to dump power when you dial down unlike more modern systems. There's no way to control power remotely, so when it's up on top of a 10 ft stand, you'll have to lower to change settings. One of its few graces is that you can easily run on AC or battery.

Great Kit!

By JOSH K.

This is a great kit. Everything is nice and durable. This is great for on location work as it can be powered with a battery pack. I use it in my home for portrait sessions.

The Flashpoint 620M AC/DC Monolight is the welterweight power champion of our M Series family of portable studio monolights. The flash incorporates all the features of a professional 300 WS strobe within a sleek and tough housing. Features like completely continuous variable power settings from 1/32 to full output (5 stops) with self-bleed circuitry, a 150 watt modeling lamp that can be linked to power settings, built in optical slave photocell trigger, replaceable flash tube, visual and switchable audio verification of recycle signals, cooling fan, and sync connections to camera or remote devices.

The advanced design self contained strobe head delivers consistent bursts of light with an efficient guide number of 192 (ISO100/ft) to create studio quality images from still life sets to portraits. The quick recycle gives you the edge on action and the impressive output, a sweet f stop for sharp imaging. Used on location, the 620M provides multiple lighting for weddings and events without the weight and limits of multiple head pack generator systems. The flash duration assures rich color and full spectrum vibrancy with a full power recycletime at a snappy maximum of 1 second on AC. The unit stays stable and cool even when using the bright quartz modeling lamp.

The use of affordable portable, lightweight strobe units adds real image controlto your work without the major expense of high energy generator packs. Portraitsbecome masterful. Event coverage a breeze. Product photography is brought to life. Food and beverage pictures become tempting. Buy several of the 620M's or mix it up with the larger 1220M and smaller 320M's for a powerful lighting system.

The optional lightweight external NiH battery pack frees you from AC wires for total lighting independence for at least 400 full power shots. The 2.6 M Series PowerPack keeps you in the action without the restriction of AC wires and extensions, anywhere.
