Hi! I'm Jackie! How are you? I would love to answer any lens/camera questions you have.
Are you shopping for a flash today? How may I help?
Hi, yes I am. I want to use this off camera with my canon 6d. What else do I need?
Jackie L.
All you need is an R2 transmitter
hold on a sec and let me get the link for you
here it is for you
Just put it on your camera and the flash has a receiver built in
Sweet! How is it powered?
Jackie L.
it goes in the hot shoe of your camera and is powered by a AAA battery
2 AA batteries
correction
okay, do you have a link for extra batteries for the light?
Jackie L.
you can find them here
Both take AA batteries
Rechargeable or regular
li-on
Jackie L.
no
Regular AA batteries
so I cant get a spare for the light?
Jackie L.
Please read above
They both take regular AA batteries
I am looking at the zoom light with the lithium ion battery
Jackie L.
My apologies, I was looking at the wrong one
I am so sorry
here is the spare battery for the flash
Ah, very good, thank you!
Jackie L.
You're very welcome! Will you be ordering today?
Well it is on backorder
Jackie L.
It will be in Friday
if you would like to preorder, you will be on the list and won't be charged until it actually ships
Okay, I will need to look at the transmitter then I may just do it.
