Review Summary

For any portable light such as this I would say this extension-head accessory is a strong must. I would never buy a strobe light that does not have this kind of extension-head for it. Even for an indoor studio light. It is very important that you are able to mount the main power-pack down low on your light stand, instead of a sandbag. This way it is not so top-heavy. I have not needed a sandbag at all with this set-up, and I have taken this to dozens of indoor and outdoor crowded public events, where irregular ground and light breezes are the norm. So far, I have yet to have my light stand with a 34" wide modifier blow over or get knocked over.

I used this flash and softbox combo as a key light for sports photography. I couldn't afford the more expensive flashes that's usually recommended by youtubers who do sports photography, but after much research, I opted to get this "budget" flash. Great flash and I would buy it again once I scale my sports photography business.

This is the first time I've upgraded my lights in 6 years and was flabbergasted at how easy it is to use. I've been using Profoto gear for the last half a decade and always thought anything other than Broncolor was going to be a downgrade. Completely wrong. Flashpoint is now my standard. This light is incredible.

Incredible! I love shooting without cables. Only issue I had was that the first model sent to me was defective. Adorama sent me a new one and I returned the defective one. Great lights! Great modifier and the CStand is exactly as it should be! Great buy!

Truly well built and functions perfect. Would definitely buy again. I have been using this light for a couple years and the batteries hold charge and provide great function for many shots.

Love this flash, recycles so fast and so convenient. I bet by end of year I buy 3 more and put my profoto lights on the shelf.

Love it! I used Profoto lights in the past and they are great but this is great too for a lot less. Very solid build. It is a bit heavier than the profoto strobe but again, this is waaaay cheaper and does the job very well. It comes with a nice case and the R2 mk ii trigger which btw is simple and easy to use. Will buy another one soon!

My XPLOR 600Pro has been a game changer with my ability to control light as well as have enough light for outdoor use. I generally use this with high speed sync by increasing my shutter speed while keeping a shallow depth of field. Love this light!

This kit is a great place to start your lighting journey. I took it out for a shoot outside in Texas in the middle of the afternoon and it preformed beautifully.

I am very pleased with the purchase of this moonlight. I find the battery to be very good along with the ability to adjust the power output with the wireless trigger. I use it in studio or on location and the power is consistent across requested exposure values. I would recommend to photographers looking to invest into an inexpensive moonlights system that offers the essential needs for artificial lighting.

For location work, this light is the bomb. The battery last for a long time, it's controls make sense, the transmitters work well and it's not too heavy. I have been using this light for about 6 months and it has made my life so much easier. Two weeks ago, I had a unit blow off a 4th floor balcony and crash onto a concrete patio. The stand, beauty dish, flash tube and battery were destroyed but the flash unit works fine. A lot tougher than it looks.

I enjoy the ability to over power the sun!! To be able to lower the exposure of my composition, the sky, the background, and foreground, to bring out color and detail. Then adjust the lighting on my subject for perfect exposure!! I now have 2 of the Xplore 600Pro HSS mono light, and love them!

This equipment is so awesome. The kit was exactly what I needed and the GlowPop is an excellent accessory for these strobes. The C-Stands are incredible. I thought to myself ?I?ll get the kit, sell the c-stands, and maybe splurge on some extra accessories.? NOPE! I don?t think I?ll ever part with them. They were a necessity I didn?t know I needed.

This affordable light is effective and consistent. It's great for studio use and outdoor use in bright sunny conditions where you are looking to create those dramatic high speed sync photos in direct sunlight.

Great strobe to use when you need to overpower the sun...think sunset engagement photos. Don't forget to buy the trigger (not included). Sturdy, well made. Nice carrying case to schlep on location. High speed sync is a great feature too. Bowens mount super versatile...lots of modifiers available. Battery pack lasts. I did an hour shoot, about 150 flashes at 1/16 power and it still had juice. Charges in about 3 hours. Works great in studio too.

I really wasn't sure what to expect from the Flashpoint 600, I had read many good reviews before I purchased it. But having used it on a few gigs I am very happy with the product. It is not cheap but it is a good investment. Easy to use, synced right up with my other Flashpoint gear and most importantly works reliably and consistently.

Much Needed Upgrade from the Xplor 600 non-TTL
By Jennifer O.
After having a failure with one of my Xplor 600 non-TTL lights I decided to switch over to the PRO. Straight out of the box you could tell it had a much better design. No more plastic in the mount! The better quality of light was apparent immediately when I started to shoot. Yes, I would recommend this to friends. In fact I already have. lol

The High-Speed Flash Mode has controllable flash duration is so rapid, it is possible to arrest action at 1/19606s, with up to 10 exposures per second, or take it easy with 'slow' duration at a spectral rich 1/190s burst.
