Will an XPLOR 600 (Canon/Nikon) work with Sony, if a Sony R2 is bought?

I ask because I'm using a Sony now and noticed in the XPLOR 600 that the menu options show only Canon and Nikon but thought the Sony R2 trigger was all you needed for Sony cameras to work.

Thanks

Yes. Strobe are not camera dependent. They work with Canon, Nikon, Sony and now with Fuji assuming FW has been updated for Fuji.

Ok, that's what I thought but second guessed as I saw only Canon/Nikon listed in the XPLOR menu options.

You'd have to buy the Sony trigger, but yes I'm using an xplor 600 and a bunch of other godox lighting equipment and it works fine. HSS, TTL are all good.
