The Flashpoint R2 eVOLV 200 First Impression
Lets start with the obvious here. The Flashpoint R2 eVOLV 200 is a variance of the Godox ad200 and is sold at Adorama in the US. This system appears to check all the boxes a photographer would want in a flash system. It is small, portable, and at 200 watts of power brighter than a modern speed light at about the same size. There are a stable full of accessories and gadgets that make the flash even more attractive. My Flashpoint eVOLV 200 first impression is that these strobes pack a big punch in a portable package.
Given that this system also has a transmitter for most of the major camera brands adds to the excitement. I shoot medium format and full frame cameras from different manufactures. Being able to use the same lighting system by just changing out the transmitter is a huge plus of not needing to buy portable speed lights for both systems. The eVOLV 200 also has High Speed Sync (HSS) as icing on the cake.
