LightPix Labs FlashQ FM2 Manual Flash - Silver

The LightPix Labs FlashQ FM2 is a compact camera flash with fully manual control, designed specifically for photographers who want 100% control over their exposure. Its striking retro design (inspired by the classic Contax TLA200) pairs beautifully with rangefinder-style cameras and compact mirrorless cameras.

The built-in 2.4 GHz FlashQ radio lets you wirelessly control up to 6 flashes at a distance of up to 10 metres. You can also have the flash trigger alongside other light sources via the built-in S1/S2 optical slave modes. This makes it perfect for creative portraits or product photography. Via the convenient USB-C port, you can not only charge your Ni-MH batteries, but it also serves as a sync input to connect the flash to your camera via a PC-sync cable.

The FM2 works universally with virtually all cameras equipped with a standard centre contact (hotshoe), including Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Sony (Multi Interface Shoe), Pentax, Olympus and Leica. You set the light output manually from 1/1 to 1/64, with precise 1/3 EV steps. Please note: with a full-power recycle time of 4 to 5 seconds, this flash encourages calm, considered photography and is not suitable for ultra-fast action or burst shooting. With the included colour filters and the built-in diffuser panel, you can instantly add a creative twist to the hard, direct flash light.

Not included, but recommended

For an optimal and safe workflow, we recommend the following accessories:

  • Rechargeable Ni-MH AA batteries (such as Panasonic Eneloop) for the fastest recycle times and safe internal charging via USB-C
  • Additional FlashQ FM2 flashes for a complete, wireless multi-flash setup
  • Compact flash bag or pouch to keep the metal housing scratch-free in your camera backpack
