Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint II 620A Monolight Kit, 300 Watt Second, One Monolight Kit with Stand and Umbrella.:
I needed a strobe for some portrait work after deciding my continuous lights were not giving me the flexibility that I wanted. After about a month of research, I decided to give the Flashpoint a try. For the price, I figured I wouldn’t be out much; and I could always use it as a second. Wow, am I impressed! This is a fantastic strobe, and lightweight to boot. Although the recycle time at full power is a bit slow if you want to snap off two or more shots a second, it’s fast enough for normal use. The sensor works perfect if I use my flash as a master, and no problems with the sync cord attached. The stand is a bit flimsy when fully extended so I will probably up grade that. My only complaint is that the reflector dome did not line up correctly for the umbrella to be mounted. After fooling with it for a while, I simply disassembled the ring from the dome and reassembled it correctly. Thankfully it’s aluminum so it was very easy to do. Other than that, you simply cannot go wrong with this light. When and if I decide to add a second strobe, you can bet I will be thinking Flashpoint.
