Flashpoint Zoom Li-Ion X MID R2 TTL Round Flash (ZLX MID Series) 

Professional Power. Perfect Size 

The Flashpoint Zoom Li-Ion X MID R2 TTL Round Flash for Nikon (ZLX MID) represents the next evolution of on-camera lighting for Nikon photographers. Purpose-built for the modern mirrorless era and fully optimized for Nikon i-TTL systems, it delivers professional-level performance, refined light quality, and advanced wireless control in a perfectly balanced medium-size design.

Positioned between compact mini flashes and full-size flagship speedlights, the ZLX MID offers the ideal combination of power, portability, and handling. It provides significantly more output, endurance, and control than small flashes, while remaining lighter, slimmer, and better balanced than oversized professional units. The result is a flash that feels natural on today\u2019s compact camera bodies, remains comfortable during long shoots, and fits easily into travel and location kits. 

Inspired by the acclaimed round-head V1 series and designed as its \u201Clittle brother,\u201D the ZLX MID brings the same lighting philosophy, magnetic modifier system, wireless R2 control, and modern touchscreen interface into a refined medium-class form factor. It is the everyday professional flash for photographers who demand reliability, speed, and beautiful light without carrying unnecessary bulk. 

Available for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus, and Panasonic, the ZLX MID integrates seamlessly into the Flashpoint R2 wireless lighting ecosystem, delivering full TTL automation, high-speed sync, multi-group radio control, and intuitive touchscreen operation in a compact, highly portable design. 

Designed as a True Medium-Size Professional Flash 

As mirrorless cameras continue to dominate professional photography, shooters are increasingly seeking lighting tools that deliver serious performance while maintaining a compact and well-balanced footprint. The ZLX MID was engineered specifically to meet this demand. 

Unlike large flagship flashes that can feel front-heavy and awkward on smaller mirrorless bodies, or compact flashes that compromise power, battery life, and control, the ZLX MID occupies the perfect middle ground. It delivers professional output and endurance while maintaining a lighter, slimmer profile that sits naturally on the camera hot shoe. Balance is improved, handling feels more secure, and fatigue is reduced during long wedding days, extended event coverage, and handheld portrait sessions. 

With a size similar to compact professional flashes such as the V480 class, yet equipped with a true round head, the ZLX MID becomes an ideal daily-use professional flash. It transitions effortlessly between weddings and events, portrait and editorial work, commercial location shoots, and travel or documentary assignments. This medium-size format makes it especially appealing to photographers who want professional lighting performance without the bulk and weight of oversized gear. 

Soft, Natural Light from a True Round Head 

At the core of the ZLX MID is its true round flash head, designed to produce a more natural and flattering light pattern than traditional rectangular speedlights. The circular design creates even, symmetrical light distribution with smoother transitions from highlight to shadow and more pleasing edge falloff. Catchlights appear round and natural, skin tones are rendered more smoothly, and highlights retain a refined, organic quality. 

This softer, more natural beam pattern makes the ZLX MID especially well suited for portraits, weddings, fashion, lifestyle, and editorial photography, where subtle transitions and flattering highlights are essential. An integrated magnetic accessory mount allows modifiers to attach instantly, enabling fast, tool-free light shaping with domes, grids, gels, and diffusers\u2014perfect for fast-paced shooting environments and on-location workflows. 

Fast, Intuitive Operation with Touchscreen Control 

The ZLX MID features a bright two-inch color touchscreen combined with traditional buttons and a precision control dial, delivering a modern yet dependable control experience. The interface is designed to be clear and intuitive, allowing photographers to adjust power, zoom, exposure compensation, wireless groups, and sync modes quickly and confidently. 

Touch controls make navigation fast and fluid, while physical buttons and dials provide tactile precision when working in dark environments or under pressure. This hybrid control system ensures that operation remains smooth, responsive, and reliable whether shooting calmly in the studio or making rapid adjustments during fast-moving events. 

Powerful, Reliable Lithium-Ion Performance 

Despite its compact medium-size body, the ZLX MID delivers professional-grade power and endurance. The integrated 7.2V / 2200mAh lithium-ion battery provides up to 650 full-power flashes on a single charge, dramatically reducing the need for spare batteries during long shooting days. Recycle times remain fast, reaching up to 1.7 seconds at full power, so the flash keeps pace with demanding event and action workflows. 

Equally important, output color and brightness remain stable even during continuous shooting, ensuring consistent exposure and color accuracy from frame to frame. USB-C charging support adds convenience and flexibility, making recharging simple in the studio, on location, or while traveling between assignments. 

Built-In Flashpoint R2 Wireless Control System 

The ZLX MID includes a fully integrated Flashpoint R2 2.4GHz wireless system, allowing it to function seamlessly as either an on-camera master controller or a wireless slave within multi-light setups. The radio system delivers long-range, reliable communication with other Flashpoint R2 flashes and transmitters, supporting complex lighting configurations with ease. 

Photographers can control multiple groups independently, adjust power remotely, and switch between TTL and manual control directly from the camera position. From simple two-light portrait setups to advanced multi-flash productions, the ZLX MID becomes a central building block of a scalable, professional lighting system that grows with your workflow. 

Professional Shooting Functions for Creative Control 

The ZLX MID supports a full range of advanced shooting features designed for professional applications. TTL auto flash delivers fast, accurate exposures in rapidly changing environments, while manual power control allows precise shaping of light from full output down to 1/256 in fine 1/10-stop increments. High-speed sync enables shutter speeds up to 1/8000 second for freezing motion or overpowering bright ambient light, while front and rear curtain sync allow creative motion effects. 

Multi and stroboscopic modes open creative possibilities for action and sequence photography, and exposure compensation ensures fine control over flash output. A built-in LED modeling lamp with adjustable brightness from 1 to 10 provides preview lighting and focusing assistance in low-light conditions, adding versatility for both still photography and hybrid shooting. 

A Modern Flash Built for the Mirrorless Generation 

As mirrorless systems continue to reshape professional photography, the ZLX MID is designed to match the way photographers work today. Its medium-size form factor complements compact camera bodies and lightweight travel kits, while delivering the power and reliability required for demanding professional assignments. The flash performs equally well in handheld, fast-paced workflows and in carefully controlled off-camera lighting setups. 

By combining round-head light quality, advanced wireless control, touchscreen operation, and a refined medium-size design, the ZLX MID delivers flagship-level sophistication in a more compact, better balanced form that fits today\u2019s shooting styles perfectly.
