Fantastic Strobe

It is definitely an amazing strobe. Because it is cord and plug, I primarily use it as a hair light (I can leave it in place, and don?t have to mess around with the C-stand.) It has an amazing flash duration, perfect for freezing motion. The refresh is fast and reliable. I haven?t missed a shot yet. I highly recommend.

Make your photography stand out with the Rapid 1200 II HSS Monolight with Built-In R2 2.4GHz Radio Remote System and Bowens Mount. This advanced lighting solution, brought to you by Flashpoint, pioneers in studio and location lighting, takes your lighting capabilities to new heights.

The Rapid 1200 II HSS R2 Monolight is an AC-powered monolight that excels in recycling, boasting an impressive 0.9-second full-power charge at a guide number of 344ft / 105m. This monolight features total R2 wireless remote radio integration, allowing seamless interfacing with all R2 family products.

Experience the freedom of wireless control with the built-in R2 system, designed to cater to the needs of every photographer. This system ensures color temperature stabilization and offers rapid-fire swift Multiflash, providing professional features that never disappoint.

The Rapid II 1200ws Monolight doesn't just offer power and speed. It provides precise digital controls with a full menu of Power, Mode, Flash Duration, Sync, Channel, Group, and Custom Features, all displayed on a clear rear graphical LCD panel. Manual controls are available in tenth (0.1) of a stop increments or 1/3 stop, ensuring accurate color and flash duration throughout the range.

In Multiflash Mode, the stroboscopic frequency can reach up to 99 flashes per second, while the High-Speed Flash Mode offers a controllable flash duration that can freeze action at 1/23400s. Choose a rich tonal range with a 'slow' duration at 1/300s for more creative control.

Despite its small size, the Rapid 1200 II is robust and durable, equipped with advanced functions expected from top-tier strobe technology. It features Flash Curtain Delay selection, Optical Receiver modes, Receiver Sequence Detection, Audible recycle notification, and Modeling Lamp modes. The time-saving MASK Function aids in creating layers in post-production composition.

The Rapid 1200 II R2 master flash is a versatile tool for various photography scenarios, from commercial studios to sporting events, portraiture to parties. The R2 Family provides comprehensive studio and location solutions, ensuring you're always ready for action.

The R2 TTL Wireless Flash System is a sophisticated 2.4GHz radio remote that adds camera TTL dedicated custom functions to your multi-flash setup. It offers reliable channel triggering, group mode selectivity, and HSS, all with powerful signal strength and exceptional stability. The LED panels display the status of all remotely linked R2 compliant strobes, giving you full control over your lighting setup.

The proprietary TTL and HSS enabled 2.4GHz R2 Radio Remote System transmits atop a modern DSLR body, offering reliable TTL and pass-through to speedlights, plus laser AF assist. R2 transmitters work with the complete family of Flashpoint Zoom Speedlights, XPLOR series Monolights, and eVOLV200's with R2 radio built right in.

Add an R2 receiver to any legacy flash with a sync port, and it too becomes part of the R2 Family! The compact and lightweight design of these units, combined with their integrated functions and features, make them the preferred choice of professional photographers.
