Questions & Answers

Kenneth D : I have two Olympus Fl 50R flashes. Is there a receiver that works with this transmitter for these flashes?MILTON N : Sorry but I don't know the answer. I purchased the Flashpoint R2 TTL Transmitter with the Flashpoint XPLOR 600 HSS and these two works just fine.ANDREW O : Not that I know of yet. I have 2 of the AD200 and love them. I have the FL 600 that I'm hang onto but I almost always use the AD200.JOHN E : Pocket wizards or any device similar......for off camera flash
Kenneth D : Is there a transmitter that works with the Olympus version?CLINT S : Yes, the Flashpoint R2 TTL Transmitter for Panasonic & Olympus works.Russell B : Yes, you found it. I’m not a fan of TTL but it all works as advertised.Gurjeet B : Yes https://<a href="http://www.adorama.com/fprrr2tp.html" target="_blank">www.adorama.com/fprrr2tp.html</a>EDGAR S : This Flashpoint R2 transmitter is compatible with Olympus OM-D system. It fires any Flashpoint (Godox) flashes/strobes that have the 2.4ghz system built in - which is indicated on the Flashpoint model names as "R2"Edward B : The transmitter works on either Panasonic or Olympus Micro Four Thirds Cameras. I use it on Panasonic.John V : Yes. This does work with Olympus cameras. I use it with my Olympus OMD EM 1 Mark II and Pen F. It also works with my Panasonic GH5 too.
Stephanie M : Are the units set as either a transmitter or receiver? I need to trigger my shutter from the flash in another room. In other words, I need the transmitter to be on the flash hotshoe and the receiver to be wired in to the camera.Aaron M : What you're describing is pretty strange. Is your flash set up as a motion-tripped device or something where you want it to then trigger the camera's shutter? Because otherwise, it sounds like you're trying to make the flash operate as a camera remote, and it might be better to use a camera remote.JACK L : The only remote shutter release I use is the Vello with the correct cable. In this case the hansheld device ie the transnitter and the device on the camera is the receiver. It is a radio signal and can be tripped anywhere within approx 100 ft. It will go through an interior wallDARRYL L : No, the receiver and trigger are separate units. They are not interchangeable. You must have a set made up of a trigger and receiver.ANDREW R : It's a transmitter only.

A good piece of equipment

It's a good piece of equipment i'm a little concerned about the front screen and I'm not a real fan of the battery cover door. It comes off fairly easily. Trying to read. The instructions is a little on the confusing side but once I got onto a YouTube review of step-by-step on how to program it was relatively easy.

Function perfectly - No very strong

Worked perfectly. A very minimal bump and it snapped right off the camera. Too flimsy for wedding work as bumps and dings are just part of the job.

R2 pro trigger

This is a real nice. It fires the strobes consistently without a problem. The button layout is a nice upgrade. I accidentally broke my first trigger when my camera fell off of the stand. I loved the trigger so much I replaced it the following day.

Fujifilm version didn't fit correctly on Fujifilm cameras

This review applies ONLY to the Fujifilm version of this trigger. My copy of the Flashpoint R2 Pro Mark II trigger was hard to slide on and take off of my Fujifilm cameras (X-T1 and X-T3). When the trigger was on the camera, the contact points on the trigger did not align with the contact points on the camera hot shoe, so the TTL and high-speed sync functions didn't work. It could, however, control flash power levels and it could fire the flashes. I had to return the unit. The solution (suggested by Shua at Adorama, thanks, Shua!) was to get the Flashpoint R2 Nano for Fujifilm, which works great!

Trigger use with R6 Mark 2

Yes, this trigger will work with an R6 Mark2. Just make sure you are not using electronic shutter mode; it will not fire in this mode. Use electronic 1st curtain or mechanical mode.

Great trigger until it had a tiny drop

This trigger was great until it fell out of my hand when unpacking from a Pelican case. It tumbled no more than 8 inches to the concrete and the screen was a mass of horizontal lines. It still worked but was unreadable - could not decipher what channel it was on. Very disappointed that it failed to survive such a tiny drop

Best ergonomics of all Flashpoint/Godox triggers

Excellent trigger which is extremely feature-rich. Most triggers lack some piece of functionality, but this one combines everything from backlit buttons, over channel search, to converting a TTL measurement into a manual setting. I believe the only feature it is missing is a "single pin" mode. This trigger has many buttons which saves one from menu-diving and/or pressing multiple buttons to get to a function/control. It arranges the group buttons near the dial and OK button, which makes it super quick to operate. Works very well with Eneloop (or similar) rechargeables as well. Highly recommended.

Good Trigger

I had used it a lot in my workshop for several years, until they came out with the new R2Nano. It was very reliable and easier to use than most triggers I've tried. Very good paired with any of the R2 strobes.

Works but with a flaw

Works as designed and well; but it broke while walking between spots. It seems to be a little too heavy and plastic gave way just above the base. I'd look at either the nano or the smaller model instead

Great flexibility from this strobe controller

I already had this controller for Pentax. Now, with the Olympus/Panasonic version, I can control my two Flashpoint strobes from both of my cameras. That gives me great flexibility.

Great wireless flash controller

I purchased this controller with two Zoom Li-Ion X TTL speedlights for use with my Pentax K3. I had no experience with wireless flash and was able to get everything working in minutes. I like this so much I bought another for my Olympus body.

Breaks SO easily

Works great, but is as weak as rice paper. Don't even come close to bumping this thing while on camera. I've gone through 2 of these because I barely bumped into a door while the camera and transmitter were in my hip, and they just disintegrate.

Exceeds my expectations

By jeffrey p.

A reasonably priced device that works well. Can trigger flash over a long distance. Works well on my Canon DSLR and can do HSS (which I could not do with another company's trigger / receiver set) at a cost much less than the Canon OEM products. I am presently using with a 5Div and two Canon Speedlights but the beauty of this product is that I can place any brand device with a Canon compatible hotshoe on it and it just works. What is also nice is the ability to add any other R2 receivers t...

seem reliable, and are useful for basic off-camera wireless radio control of one or more compatible flashes

By MICHAEL S.

Adorama has been offering its TTL-capable FlashPoint R2 transmitter/receiver set for Sony cameras with a multi-interface shoe at least since the beginning of 2017, but only the transmitter was available with a multi-interface shoe. Now the receiver is FINALLY available (9/20/17). The units are smaller than a pack of playing cards, and they seem far more robust than the inexpensive manual Yuonguo radio triggers I used for my Canon DSLR. They take two AA batteries, so they should hold up wel...

Flashpoint R2 TTL Transmitter for Panasonic & Olympus

The Flashpoint R2TP Transmitter is the ultimate radio transmitter system for Panasonic & Olympus MSLRs that connects to all strobes with sync ports and also communicates to the whole R2 family including Flashpoint Streaklight, ZoomLi-on and Zoom and Panasonic/Olympus speedlights using TTL protocol without missing a beat. The incredible range of these compact and lightweight units as well as their integrated functions and features make them the first choice of professional photographers. The proprietary TTL enabled 2.4GHz R2 Radio Remote System radio triggers transmits atop a Panasonic or Olympus body with the essential TTL pass-through and works with the complete family of Flashpoint Speedlights, Monolights and Strobe lights with R2 TTL radiotransceiver built right in.

All the R2 enabled family communicate seamlessly: the lithium powered Zoom Li-on Canon, Nikon, and Sony TTL speedlights, the Zoom AA alkaline energized speedlight, the fantastic Streaklight 360 Canon and Nikon TTL powerhouse, and the portable 600ws XPLOR600 monolights. Older Flashpoint flashes can be fired and controlled off camera while being attached to the R2 Radio Remote Receiver FPRRR2RP to grace remote link to earlier models.

To compliment the traditional group ratio style interface, the R2-TP provides a full proprietary GR Group style interface allowing up to 5 Groups to be individually set to either TTL, Manual, or Off. PC cord sync input and output ports are provided for external device remote sync without automation.

Controlling the remote strobes on the transmitter is straightforward, with a large clear LCD panel interface aside 3 separate buttons relating to channel, groups and modes, while a thumb wheel provides fast scroll adjustment for the selected function. A simple switch located on the side of the transmitter allows the laser pattern Focus Assist Light to be switched on and off when needed. The receiver device is simply set to the matching channel and you are on the way to remote TTL heaven.

Some functions are controlled by the camera within the menu selections. See the camera's instruction manual for details.
