Used Flashpoint R2 XPro II 2.4GHz TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Canon Cameras X

Fragile

I own the version I of this trigger and it has worked great for me for many years. The version II is even better with the ability to double-tap on a group button to quickly turn the group off without having to cycle through the modes.

Double-tap to easily turn off a group

I love this Flashpoint R2 XPro ll 2.4ghz TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Canon Cameras and the setting are easy for me to put info in them to help me be able to control my flashpoint speed flash zoom li-on ttl flash R2 for canon  when I put the speed flash on my soft box. They are perfect!

As advertised. Controls flashes like a charm! Still getting used to it but so far it's been great.

Does what it says on the tin

Not only did this give me the ability to use off camera flash with the ad200 I bought, but it also connects to my Godox V1 which I didn't realize I could connect to a light stand and use as a second flash. Really happy with this purchase. Took me a few minutes to figure out how to hook them up separately so I can make both lights fire but at different powers, but I figured it out and it's awesome.

Huge step up in my photos

It works good, so far anyway.  Not a fan of how the app was set up. I found it annoying really.  The slide on the horseshoe is way better than the previous version. It's maybe ten dollars over priced, but that's my opinion on it.  lol

It's better but....

Flashpoint R2 XPro II 2.4GHz TTL Wireless Flash Trigger Is my first trigger.  After researching different brands of light kits I decided to go with Flashpoint/Godox.  It was easy to set up and get started shooting right away.  Menus are easy to follow and the ease of use adjusting light output was very nice.  
I highly recommend this product!

Flashpoint R2 XPro II 2.4GHz TTL Wireless Flash Trigger

Unlike previous Flashpoint/Godox Sony triggers this one actually fits in a Sony A1 without needing a sledgehammer to drive it in. Very full-featured trigger with lots of control over the Flashpoint/Godox line of flashes and strobes. Fairly intuitive to use.

Finally a trigger that fits an A1 hotshoe

A wonderful Upgrade to the previous model! Would recommend if you have the spare change.

Upgrade Now!

delivered on time, and intact.  popped in the batteries and went to town with it!

fit and finish is very good. build quality seems to be good.  only shot with it for about an hour or so and had no hiccups or issues

works GREAT

Feels like it's more solid that the 1st generation of this trigger. Better plastic and functionality and fit on the hot shoe.

Better than the 1st gen

good quality

This is definitely an improved version over the original v1 transmitter. The screen is slightly brighter, with more contrast, which definitely has helped in shooting outdoors and in brighter sun. 

The hot-shoe mount and foot also seems built sturdier too, which was a problem in the previous v1 iteration; that one was held together at the base by VERY tiny screws that barely protruded into the plastic housing of the main body, so it would easily come apart with no way to fix it. . . time will only tell with this model.

MUCH improved is the addition of a short-throw button lock for the hot shoe mount - Bravo! It locks positively with a 'click', unlike the previous version's "twist multiple times" lock, which is comparatively annoying and too easy to over-tighten.

The body of this v2 is slightly larger, but comparing the 2 in weight and feel, you'd hardly notice.

The menu system has been upgraded and improved, too. Strangely though, there's no 'back' button in some of the sub-menu's - a strange omission, given that some sub-menu's have it.

All in all, a pretty nice upgrade in this v2 transmitter over the v1. 

In a future iteration, or firmware upgrade, I'd love to have the ability to customize the 4 direct access menu buttons right below the bottom of the screen; to be able to tailor these 4 buttons to my shooting needs would keep me from having to stop a shoot and dig through menu's.

Adding this transmitter to the integration of Flashpoint/Godox in Sekonic meters, and you've got a wireless match made in heaven for flash photography! Just make sure to buy a second one -- it's always good to have a backup, just in case. Definitely recommended!

So far so good! A short comparison of v1 vs v2

Great product and excellent customer service from the team at Adorama.  Keep up the good work!

Flashpoint R2 XProL II 2.4GHz TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Leica

Sadly doesn't support TTL for the M240 and most likely 262 and Q. Bummer

Doesn't support M240

Bought this together with the Xplor 600 Pro TTL flash unit.  

Using both  together with a Leica M240, Leica Monocrom Typ 246, and Leica SL Typ 601.

Firmware on the Transmitter was up-to-date out of the box, while the strobe unit requires and update to version 1.7 in order to work with Leica.  The firmware version on Adorama's flashpoint website was only 1.5, so  I had to call into to Adorama's tech service to take care of this--they got the firmware from the manufacturer's website.  Be warned:  updating firmware for flashpoint products using Windows 10 is not something for novices.    

Once updated, the results are:

Leica SL Typ 601:  works fine in TTL mode at all shutter speeds

Leica M246 and M240:  works fine only up to 1/180s.  Will not work at speeds faster than 1/180s in TTL mode:  the strobe "stutters"  (multiple bursts?) and only a slice of the sensor is exposed.  Works fine in manual mode at 1/180s or slower.   Note:  the manufacturer does not claim compatibility for these bodies (but it would have been nice!)

So I'll keep it, accepting the limitation for the older bodies.

No TTL for M240/M246

Finally I can you my entire Flashpoint ecosystem 
for portraiture.
