Westcott FJ400 II Strobe

The FJ400 II is designed for both. You can use the included FJ Pro AC/DC battery for cordless, on-location shooting, or plug it directly into an AC outlet for studio work, ensuring you never run out of power during long sessions.

The FJ-X3 trigger is compatible with most major camera systems, including Canon, Nikon, Sony (in manual mode), Fuji, Panasonic Lumix, and Olympus. It provides seamless wireless control over your strobe settings from up to 985 feet away.

The FJ400 II features a standard Bowens S-Type mount, which is the industry standard for studio lighting. This gives you access to a massive ecosystem of softboxes, umbrellas, and reflectors, including Westcott's own Rapid Box Switch modifiers.

Normal mode prioritizes color temperature consistency, which is ideal for standard portraiture. Freeze mode significantly shortens the flash duration—down to 1/24000s—to stop fast-moving subjects in their tracks, though it may slightly impact color temperature stability.

Yes, the kit is built for portability. It includes a dedicated protective backpack that fits the strobe, battery, trigger, and accessories comfortably, making it a manageable setup for photographers who frequently travel between studio and location shoots.

The 30W bi-color LED modeling lamp is primarily designed to help you visualize your lighting setup and assist with autofocus in dim environments. While it provides decent illumination, it is not intended to serve as a primary continuous light source for video production.
