The Flashpoint APP operates in tandem with the Flashpoint R2 Pro Mark II transmitter as a mobile phone gateway to the graphical control of the R2 2.4GHz Wireless Radio Remote TTL System. The combination links seamlessly to a wide range of Flashpoint professional flash and LED products, from the mighty Rapid 1200 AC monolight to the lithium powered XPLOR’s and eVOLV’s portable strobes and on to the Zoom and Streaklight speedlights – all for use with Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm and Panasonic/Olympus cameras. The FP APP expands the capabilities of your built-in smartphone camera to gain membership in the R2 Family. Capture like never before as part of the most expansive, elite club of flash and LED available for the imaging world.

You can set it, test it, change it and memorize the stored settings for future events. Customize the R2 Family experience as you want it, without ever getting near your gear. No less than 16 pages of micromanagement of every exacting parameter relating to your lighting for studio or on location. It’s the discerning photographer’s dream come true.
