Jeff H.
Hello, welcome to Adorama how are you today? My name is Jeff, how can I assist you?
What is the difference between getting the Flashpoint StreakLight 360 Ws manaual with the separate R-2 iTTL receiver versus getting the 7% Off
Flashpoint StreakLight 360 Ws Flash TTL for Nikon?
Jeff H.
You have to adjust the power on the manual light. The TTL version will do it for you using the cameras meter system
The R2 transmitter has HSS capability to where the regular triggers for the manual light does not if that's what you're asking.
But the R2 iTTl system says it will do that for flashes and strobes
No I am looking at purchasing the manual 360 streaklight, and then adding the R2 ittl for nikon triggers. WQont that do the same thing as getting the streaklight 360 with the built in R2 for nikon?
Jeff H.
yes that will be the same thing only not built in
How does the R2 differ from pocket wizards? I already have several of the flex, and am wondering with they will work with the streaklight>
Jeff H.
sounds like you just need the lights - I just use Yunguno triggers with mine, Pocket wiz's will work too
Will I be able to get into Hypersync mode?
Jeff H.
if the pocket wiz model has it then yes, pretty sure mini and flex do without checking
Yes they do, I was just wondering about the interface with the streaklight. Will I need a PC cord, or with they work with the hotshoe?
Jeff H.
I use the hot shoe for my triggers
simpler
no cords to fuss with
OK, I am looking at 2 of the streaklights. Can you explain teh creatge your own bundle
Jeff H.
looking at it now
all I see is you can add the Flashpoint Zi-on to it to save $30 off it - good light I use one as my third light
to get two 360's just add 2 to cart instead
OK, thanks
Jeff H.
you[re very welcome
Are the godox and the R2 the same receivers? can you mix them?
Jeff H.
Not 100% sure but think you can, never tried to do that
And one more question for the R2, can you turn individual lights on and off? And can you control the power output from the camera?
Jeff H.
- yes on the transmitter
I linked
OK, thanks.
Jeff H.
very welcome
