Good value for indoor studio lighting

Decent for the price. Connects well with the flashpoint R2 transmitter. Wish the power increments were smaller and wish the minimum power was lower which I don't believe was listed in the description. Otherwise no complaints. I like the modeling light on this as well. I am using inside of a 37 inch octabox

Flashpoint

I started with a pair of the eVolv 200's for location and loved them. I wanted something similar for the studio and decided this would be good to try out. Inexpensive yet with enough power and versitility to do what I needed. Once you get used to the R2 system you get spoiled/

Great for the price, and consistent enough

Overall it?s a great light, especially for the price. It?s pretty consistent in terms of power output and color balance. I haven?t done any very technical tests but it looks good to me 95% of the time. I?ve only had a few misfires, which I kind of expected. For the price, it gets 5 stars. If it were much more expensive I?d drop a star but I do love this light.

good but not the best

I have a crack on a lamp after one studio shot... it still works but you never know when I will have the last shot with this lamp. Anyway, this is a really good price for a home studio.

This and the 400ws monolights are my first studio lights and I couldn't be happier. The flash recycle rate is super fast and the light output is amazing.

Descent light for the price, looks very professional and so far it works great.

Great light for beginners !! it works great wirelessly with my Canon camera, Don"t need a cable. My place is not huge so the power output of the light is good.. for a bigger place , you might need a higher wattage. Overall it works great for me.I had owned it for a little over 2 years and no issues, still works great.

Great value and quality!

I love this strobe. I got the 300 ws as a starter strobe and love the quality of light and consistent output. Easy to use, not too heavy, and being able to use it alongside my speedlights with the R2 is a big plus.

Functions as advertised and sells for a ridiculously low price

I have been using this strobe as well as a Flashpoint Studio 400. They both work flawlessly. The only criticism I have is that the power can only be reduced to 1/16. I would like it to go at least down to 1/64. I have a Flashpoint EXPLOR 600 battery operated strobe and it goes down to 1/256. If you want to shoot a models head and shoulders and want to shoot f/2 to get good bokeh to separate the model from the background you will likely not be able to do so with 1/16 power unless you do one of two things. Firstly you can move the strobe much further from the model which may be impractical if you have a small studio. The other possibility is to use a neutral density filter such as an ND8. I have to say that the price of this strobe is extreeeemly low for what it does. Its a steal !!!

Perfect for what I needed.

I've been really happy with this strobe so far. I have a pretty small studio space, so I didn't need a a very powerful light. The 300 seems to be perfect for what I need. My budget wasn't huge, with my studio being closed for 3 months, but my main strobe stopped working and I needed something to replace it. Used with my softbox, this light produces beautifully even light, and recycles fast. I have only used this strobe for 2 shoots so far, one being 4 hours. I had no overheating issues. I would recommend this light to anyone with a smaller studio, it packs a punch for the price.

Best light for the Buck!

These lights work perfect! I'm using them as a hairlight and a backlight. I'm able to adjust thru the R2 controller or even my phone to find tune my portrait work. I especially like that they are light weight. Will. Be :the 400 watt sec versions for my main and fill. Plus maybe a couple more for kickers. This a great AC light for indoor and situations where you can plug in. Haven't got anything negative to say as of v yet. For the price...if one of these breaks down...you can afford to have a back up or 2. I a couple of battery powered 600s and they work wonderfully with these. Finally! Now i don't have to think about ProPhoto and theexorbitant cost of that anymore.

FLASHPOINT STUDIO 300 REVIEW

I love these as a beginner studio photographer these have been helpful, and is a good starter monolight to use. And also the price is very affordable. It doesnt come with a battery pack so if you wanna use them on location you'd need a battery pack.. also you need a transmitter to use HSS.. overall i love the quality of images i get from them

Outstanding starter lights

By Joshua L.

I picked up two of the 300Ws versions. These are really great lights if you're just diving into strobe lighting, and if you want to buy into a system that is scalable. The build quality is pretty good for their price range, although I wouldn't recommend any location shooting in extreme environmental conditions (doesn't seem likely anyhow since these are AC powered lights). I've found that the 5-stop power range is actually soft enough for extremely limited fill-light (18.75Ws @ 1/16th) when ...

By Richard K.

I needed a low power monolight to fit a softbox with a built-in Bowens mount. This fits the bill perfectly. Adjustable powers settings in 1/10th stops, and adjustable modeling light from 5% to 100% (or proportional, or OFF) You can decide whether the modeling light stays on during recycling, or goes off and back on when recycled. The only downside, if you can call it a downside, is the flashtube is much warmer that described in the specs. They claim 5600 +/-200. Using a Minolta color meter, I...
