Employing the familiar, intuitive monolight form factor, Westcott has rolled out the FJ200 Strobe with power, fast response, and the asset of a removable, rechargeable, lithium-ion polymer battery that will give you 450 full-power flashes on a 2-hour charge. The FJ200 has a 9-stop power range in 0.1 stop increments and recycles in a fast 0.5 to 1.3 seconds. It is backed by a 1/20,000 peak action-stopping flash duration in Freeze Mode, is capable of 20 fps, and supports High-Speed Sync up to 1/8000 second as well as front and rear curtain sync.

One of the FJ200's exciting features is its TTL option. The flash has an integrated 16-channel, 32-group, 2.4 GHz receiver that with separate purchase of an FJ-X2m Wireless Trigger or FJ80 Universal Speedlight, will accept TTL signals at distances up to 328' from Canon, Nikon, Sony (with adapter), FUJIFILM, Panasonic Lumix, and Olympus cameras. The flash has a 5/8" receiver to mount on industry-standard light stands, as well as a USB-C port for Windows and Mac firmware updates. Westcott generously provides a reflector, travel case, 30-degree grid, and a USB cable.

Like the receiver that's built into the flash head, the FJ-X2m Universal Flash Trigger for FJ400 Strobe from Westcott has 16 wireless channels and 6 groups to avoid interference with other photographers or to shoot multiple setups. It's also Bluetooth capable with the ability to create four additional groups via a free mobile app among other features. The FJ-X2m is compatible with Canon, Nikon, Sony with an adapter, FUJIFILM, Panasonic Lumix, and Olympus cameras and has wide adjustment control of the FJ400's functions including TTL Mode, High-Speed Sync, Rear Curtain Sync, Canon RT flash compatibility, group and channel assignment, group exposure compensation, and modeling lamp settings. And it can do all of this at distances up to 985'! The FJ-X2m runs on a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and among its convenience features offers a tiltable shoe to accommodate user preference.

As the name "Switch" hints, Westcott has introduced a line of softboxes designed for setup and rapid swapping out of different brands of strobes and speedlights in seconds. The 26" Rapid Box Switch Octa-S Softbox is a good choice for use in the studio or on location for portraits, fashion, or corporate work. The large surface area of the softbox gives its output a wraparound quality especially when used close up. Another benefit is the reflection of natural-looking catchlights in your subject's eyes. As indicated in the name, the softbox has a basic ring to hold it together, but instead of full speed rings, 13 "inserts" are available and are required for a speedlight or specific brand of strobe. The quick release thumb-lock on the Rapid Box Switch ensures the security of your light. Besides the benefit of speed, the softbox is structurally sound with durable metal framework, heat-resistant fabric, and a reflective silver interior that maximizes your light source's output. The Rapid Box Switch Octa's diffusion material has also been thoroughly tested and found to be neutral, ensuring a true rendition of color. A carry case is included for storage and transport.

While designed as a component of a multiuse system, the Westcott Rapid Box Switch Insert for FJ200 Strobe is also available for those who like the light quality of their Wescott softbox and switch brands or rent them. Westcott has approximately 17 optional adapters to fit major brands and even speedlites.

Comfortably transport, store, and protect your DSLR or mirrorless camera, four lenses, and related accessories with the Lite Traveler Backpack in black/gray from Westcott. The pack features padded sleeves for a laptop and tablet, and multiple interior and exterior pockets. Photographers will appreciate the padded touch-fastening dividers, the side tripod attachment, and the cushioned, padded back panel. Carry the pack with the top handle, or wear it with the padded shoulder straps and sternum strap. For strength and durability, the pack is constructed from 900D nylon and canvas.

Ideal for hair lighting or as an accent light, the FJ200 Snoot with Honeycomb Grid from Westcott mounts to the front of the FJ200 and narrows its wide beam into a tight soft-edged circle while eliminating spill light and providing the directional control that enables selective lighting. The further away from the subject, the larger the beam's diameter and conversely, the closer it is the smaller its diameter. Westcott includes a removable 10-degree grid for shooters who require narrower, more precise illumination. An FJ80 Magnetic Mounting Ring is included.
