Flashpoint StreakLight 360 Manual Version only $279.95!

Wow, now the manual StreakLight 360 is down to $279.95!

Nice price.

It's now at a real competitive price with one Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT Flash.

Thanks. This is one that I've been waiting for. As an Olympus user, the TTL bundles didn't do much for me.

I am ordering the explorer 600 bundle for $999.99 and wondering if the R2 transmitter will work together with streetlight 360 or not?

In order to use the R2 transmitter with the manual version of the StreakLight, you need the R2 receiver:

The StreakLight 360 TTL has a built-in R2 receiver.

Thank you Sir! and yes I meant the Xplor 600

Oh, glad you pointed that out. Seems worth paying more just to avoid having to mess with a separate R2 receiver.

For that reason, I went with the TTL version considering how attractive the special deal price was. To me, it's definitely worth paying a bit more not to deal with any additional piece.

like always adorama messing up with the shopping chart. try to charge for expedited shipping when it stated that it is free.

Hmm. This is probably too tempting for me to pass up for at least one of them. I can live without the TTL and probably just use a patch of velcro to keep the receiver from dangling. Or a bungee cord? Buhler? Buhler?

Edit: looks like it just plugs in and doesn't have to dangle around like the old skool Pocket Wizzards. I can live with that, AND TTL, for $80 savings. Better grab one!

Yes, get the XTR-16 (Flashpoint R2 Bridge Receiver for Non-R2 Streaklights) linked above.

It just plugs in via USB, very small. You'll hardly know they are there.

It is the exact same form factor as the one that will come with your 360, but it operates on 2.4Ghz like the X1 (R2 ) transmitter.

Deal is insanely good price!

Ordered one, but I wonder if I should stock up

Tempted to get one even though my main aim was an extra speedlite this month or next. But I have two regular 360s already and use Odin triggers. The wireless 360s haven't been too attractive yet, because my speedlites now are Canon, and the Godox trigger won't fire canon in unison or vice versa without going slave, which isn't feasible many times.

But I can use the Odin on everything, making the regular 360 on sale perfect. The price was almost astonishingly good when I spotted an ad pop up last night from a Youtube video.
