Questions & Answers

Shopper : does it had a sener?ANDREW T : It has a sensor that triggers it when another flash fires. It also has a PC connection so the camera can trigger it as the first flash to fire.GINO M : It has a slave sensor that makes it fire when another strobe firesLEWIS K : If you mean sensor, yes. That is what "Built-in Slave" means. I use them as fill and background flash units along with an on camera flash and it works fine.TOMMY E : I think you are asking if the unit has a sensor. Yes it does.

Not Canon Speedlite friendly

Initial testing with my two FP slaves I found that they trigger with my Speedlite 580 EX II but there is a timing problem. The photo does not record their flash (turned them to face the camera). It may be that the 580 has to be in Manual mode but I have not had time to investigate that yet.

Nice flash

Great flash. This is way better than the cheap eBay version that blows out easily.

Great for small events

I have been using these little lights for corporate Christmas parties for a few years now and they are perfect. I don't have to worry about someone tripping over a light stand and breaking expensive equipment and if one bulb goes dead you can simply quickly replace it. They are powerful enough to get a proper exposure with the correct setup and do a wonderful job.

Need another one!

Gd at what it does. As Secondary light source. Use with reflector, or soft-box. Inexpensive solution for fill light.

Great flash. This is way better than the cheap eBay version that blows out easily.

The Flashpoint AC45 WS Slave Flash is an economical strobe light source with a built-in optical slave sensor that you use in any standard AC household lamp fixture or Edison E26 socket. The light weight strobe serves as a self contained main light as well with the included sync cable.

Here are a few examples of the flexibility of this product:
You can hide them in large interior sets, replacing the tungsten bulbs within fixtures to keep an ambient daylight effect, without overpowering the main light exposure. Using several judiciously adds to the overall natural daylight look inthe room.

String several units on a ceiling perimeter to fill the room with wraparound light that stays in sync with your on camera flash. More practical uses... copy stand lights, security camera flash source, multiplelight portrait sets, and edge effect accents...
