This was recommended to me after I made an email enquiry to Adorama and it’s perfect for what I need! Thanks so much for the online help!

On the first use I couldn't get it to do anything. Trippled check everything and still nothing. Finally it starts to work and all is well for a while. Midway through the shoot they stop firing. Only by pressing the test button did they fire. Can't trust these to perform well.

I must tell you I am a beginner student photographer. I really had to do my research on my lighting equipment. At first, I was told the wrong thing, of course, I was frustrated I almost returned everything thig, I stuck with it. I asked questions and I got answers. This HSS Remote is awesome. Note HSS allows you to go beyond shutter sync speed and be in bright sunny light and you have control of the ambient light while using a fast lens (ie. f/1.8, f/2.8 ect). It's a must have in order to use HSS functions. Reading the manual is good but youtube videos helped me a ton. Happy shooting

Great. This is my 3rd R1 HSS Transceiver. The first 2 worked very well. This is just a back up and for use on newer lights.

This is a great transceiver for the price but it does have its issues. While these serve the purpose of triggering a flash they often will trigger the flash unit without even being triggered from the camera.

Ordering and shipping was very good, as expected, however I couldn't get the remotes to talk to one another. Adorama paid return postage, exchanged the items for with no hassles.

I haven't quite figured it out to be able to use it wirelessly, but I am hopeful :)

Purchased the Flashpoint Streaklight AD 360 and this remote thinking it would work with the new R2 commander. It does not. This is the R1, 433mhz. Nothing wrong with it except that it is the old, slower radio signal and does not connect with the newer stuff.

Does the job for my manual flashes (Flashpoint 620M) perfectly. Consistent dependable results. Price point is very acceptable! Thank you Flashpoint!!

When HSS shooting is required this is a must have unit reasonably priced with quality and durability you can expect from Flashpoint products.

I picked up a demo model of this trigger with a receiver because I needed something HSS compatible to use with my 600w AC/DC strobe for an upcoming outdoor shoot. I didn't really have any expectation, I just needed it to work. I didn't realize I had just stumbled across the highest quality trigger for the price on the market. I now use this trigger and the receivers on all the strobes in my studio (there was no need for me to get the R2 because I do not use Flashpoint strobes). The R1 trigger and receivers are perfect universal wireless HSS triggers for any application--from my professional studio right down to a hobbiest just getting into strobe photography. I would highly recommend these products to anyone.

If you have a flash like the Flashpoint 360 and are shooting in sunlit conditions this lets you use a faster shutter speed to control the daylight, yet get the full effect of the strobe. It would be nice if this unit could control the flash settings remotely.

I like it when it works. I have a brand new Canon 5D Mark IV and use 2 Flashpoint flashes and the the flashes don't always trigger. Every 4 or 5 frames the flash doesn't either go off or doesn't sync with shutter. When it fires, it looks great.

Works just as it should with my Flashpoint RL600B giving me HSS with my Canon 6D.

Not practical

The Flashpoint R1 works for the most part, but the flash output seem to go down significantly with every increase over shutter speed over 1/2000 second. I lost what seem like 2-stops of light by the time I got to 1/8000 of a second. At 1/1000 and below, the performance was excellent. I was using this with the trigger that came with the Rovelight 600, so that might have reduced the efficiency, but it was not directly compatible with the flash and I didn't purchase the receiver since the flash was listed as compatible. It's better than no HSS. But I wouldn't recommend it if you could get a better or more compatible one.

Had no issues synching 7D and 30D to universal Flashpoint gear and using HSS to 1/8000th sec.

I have a couple of Rovelight 600Bs and wanted to be able to do high speed shooting. Got one transiver for my Canon 5d mkiii and another for the Rovelight. It also alows HSS on my Canon 600EX-RT when off camera.

As far as HSS triggers go, it works as advertised. My first pair contained one unit that had some kind of short and wouldn't hold HSS on my camera body. The replacement was sent immediately and it works fine. As a HSS trigger, it works fine, but I find Yongnuo 622 or 622-TX units just as good and they are also compatible with the flash head. The HSS tranceiver is a little bulky and will also require velcro or an attached cold shoe on the remote flash head to hold it firmly in place. There is a tranceiver-mounted hotshoe that will allow the mounting of either a speedlite or another remote trigger. It is handy to mount the Flashpoint RoveLight's remote trigger in the hotshoe to enable adjusting the power level up or down while using the HSS tranceiver to control the HSS function. If you already have a HSS compatible trigger, this one is not needed, but if you don't already own one, then this is an affordable way to shoot up to 1/8000 sec outdoors and sync your flash.

I bought 4 of them, but they don`t fire my SB 800 and SB 900 in HSS mode with Nikon D3s and D2xs. They work good only up to 1/250s

Works well for my Nikon gear. For Fuji xt-1 it will trigger flash but not at high speed sync.

Works as intended. Enjoying the whispers sync
By Patrick G.
Enjoying the hi speed since now because of this. I know, you lose the control of changing the power of your Rovelights remotely... Or do you. You know you can pocket the original trigger and still be able to change the lights, right?
Phenomenal light
By Rachell J.
This is a great alternative to the Prophoto B1. The HSS option is why I wanted it. I've used it a couple times now and my location sessions have been a breeze and much faster as this light is consistent. I thank Jason Lanier on YouTube for demonstrating it's use.https://youtu.be/uiXkgJ8xW2 shttps://youtu.be/4zf_XPZnvXk
