Questions & Answers

Bill H : Shooting with a Canon 6D, I am buying 2 Alien Bees B800. I want to know which radio Poppers system do I need to be able to Control the output of flash from on top my camera? Does it also operate Hyper-Synq?THOMAS B : Sorry, I only purchased these for my remote Nikon flashes. I suggest you call Radio Popper direct, they are nice people and very helpful and excited about their products!TRAVIS G : The Radio Popper Jr2 transmitter and receiver will work with the Alien Bee and give you remote output control over the flash output. I've never gotten a sync faster than 1/200th of a second with the Alien Bee or the Einstein. I think there is a lot of wishing on the internet that these transmitters and their predecessors did high speed but they do not with Canon or Nikon cameras.
Shopper : If I mount my flash on to the hotshoe of the jr2, how do I mount it to my flash tripod?

Hoping mine was a fluke

I?ve always been a Radiopopper fan but I?m not thrilled with this particular product. It doesn?t fire every time but I?m guessing it has something to do with the poor connection at the hot shoe. The dial to tighten it is poor quality and it is either too tight and gets stuck or too loose and slides off. I also had to tape the battery door on.

The best triggering system not built-in to flash

This is hands-down the easiest triggering system to use that isn't built into flashes (like the canon 600 ex-rt). I wonder why their popularity has waned over the years, as the jrx (this unit's predecessor) was fantastic (with a few reliability issues). I just wish it were made a bit more durable.. otherwise it's the perfect system.

Very imited compatability

Can't control power of Yongnuo YN-565 for Canon (The most popular third party Canon flash) Can't control power of the Sunpak 120Jii - one of the most popular Canon bare-bulb flashes. Website says "Compatible with most popular Canon compatible flashes" ?? If an old Canon 50D can control the power of the Yongnuos, why can't Radiopopper. Sending the whole system back.

*Will be* a great product, but not today

These just came out a few months ago, and apparently they aren't flying off the shelves. I say this because when I received the two receivers I purchased together with the Jr2 transmitter, they did not offer wireless power control of my 430 EX Canon Speedlite (one of the marquee features of this product). After some correspondence with customer support, I was told that I needed to ship back the units so the firmware could be updated, which is another thing to be aware of. You can't update the firmware yourself, despite the fact that the units have a USB ports for doing that. The software they will be releasing for this isn't available and they won't say when it will be. At this time, the firmware can (apparently) only be updated by shipping the units back to them (at your own cost by the way). When you do ship them back, they may sit on their shelves for well over a week before getting serviced, although customer service will probably tell you (as they did to me) that it will be a "quick turnaround". From the time they received my returned units, it was 11 days before I could see that they were on their way back to me. FYI... I have been using (and loving) the RadioPopper Jrx series of transmitter and receivers for the last few years very happily. In my opinion, they're the best on the market in the cross section between features and price. It's just that these Jr2's are new and they obviously weren't ready for prime time - neither the product, or the company to support them. Buyer beware.

The best triggering system not built-in to flash

By HENDRICK M.

While maintaining the legacy of the RadioPopper Jrx, the RadioPopper Jr2 Transmitter presents a comprehensive redesign that significantly enhances quality, usability, and features. This compact, high-tech device supports four distinct groups, each of which can be swiftly toggled on and off via front-facing, illuminated buttons. This user-friendly design ensures photographers can effortlessly identify active groups and make adjustments on the fly.

The Jr2 Transmitter's single dial provides stop-accurate control of lights and strobes, allowing for precision adjustments in 1/3rd or 1/10th stop increments over a range of 9 stops. This feature ensures optimal lighting conditions for every shot, whether you're adjusting one group at a time or all simultaneously.

As a versatile addition to your photography toolkit, the Jr2 Transmitter can also function as a remote trigger, receiving commands to synchronously activate your camera and lights. Its compact display is designed to clearly indicate the power levels of all lights while maintaining a low-profile design. An automatic backlight further enhances readability in any lighting condition.

The Jr2 Transmitter is reverse compatible with all existing RadioPopper products and offers stop-accurate control of Alien Bees and speedlights when paired with the new Jr2 Receiver. A unique memory function allows you to save up to four setups for instant recall, making it easier to switch between location setups or common studio configurations.

The Jr2 Receiver, sold separately, features a built-in hot shoe and a light stand 1/4-20 on its base, eliminating the need for an RPCube or hot shoe connector to control power levels of speedlights. It now supports the Nikon SB-700 and 900 series of lights and can be purchased with either a Canon or Nikon style hot shoe.

Both the Jr2 Transmitter and Receiver operate on a pair of AAA batteries, with an LCD display indicating battery level to prevent unexpected power loss during crucial shoots. A USB port is included for firmware upgrades and potential future features. Stay tuned for RadioPopper's upcoming releases that will extend the Jr2 Transmitter's stop-accurate control to Photogenic and Einstein lights.
